The photo show our Members holding balloons, provided by Val, as the  Birthday of the Church is celebrated at Pentecost and a line in one of our prayers during that meeting was "The wind makes balloons fly high in the sky, Spirit of God  lift  me up to a new freedom".   All our Members were present including Joyce Evans (2nd from left) who tragically died on the day of the Diocesan Festival, she would have been 91 in July.  Joyce had been a Member of St Peter's for 63 years, was very down to earth, had a lively personality and was most hospitable - she will be missed by us all.

THE MARY SUMNER PRAYER

All this day, O Lord,

let me touch as many lives as possible for thee, and every life I touch, do thou by thy spirit quicken,

whether through the word I speak, the prayer I breathe, or the life I live.

Amen

(written in 1876 by Mothers’ Union Founder – Mary Sumner)
