Vicarage Notes

Dear friends, 

I really must congratulate the organisers of the Oxhill Jubilee Celebrations on a wonderful effort despite the inclement weather - a splendid time. It was also great to welcome so many to St. Lawrence and I hope all enjoyed the service!

After 3 days of sharing celebrations around the villages, it was good to get back to normal and for me that has included completing the grant application form for English Heritiage. We've applied for £95,000 towards a projected total of £140,000 inc VAT and shall hear in December whether we have been successful. Patience is a virtue ...... If we have a positive response, as well as our reserves there will be other grant appliications to be made and local fund raising to be undertaken.

In the meantime, we do our best to care for St Lawrence's and ensure that it is a living church, a place of rest and welcome, a place where joyful events can be celebrated and where sadness is also expressed. It continues to be a symbol of the wider community, not only of its heritage, but also its future.

Best wishes and God bless,

Nicholas Morgan    01608 685230
