NOTICES

Message from Rev Paul Howes – My great thanks to you all for the most generous gift presented to me at the church on 19th May. When we move to Ipswich in the summer it will be a joy to purchase something for our new home. I won’t say as a reminder of Lexden, for I am certain that we will not forget the rich fellowship it has been a privilege to share with you. My prayerful best wishes, Rev Paul.
