Dear friends Thank you to all who prepared our church buildings for Easter, cleaning and decorating them. All five looked fantastic for our Easter services. It was great to see so many of you on Easter day as we came to celebrate the fact that Jesus Christ rose from the dead and to think about what that means for each of us. We were reminded of the love and forgiveness that God is able to offer us because Christ paid the price for the wrong we each do. Half way through last month we celebrated St George's Day. The story of George and the dragon is wonderful and inspiring. In paintings depicting the story we normally see St George with the red cross emblazoned across his shield, reminding us of the cross of Christ and the level of love and service that we are called to. As St George confronts and slays the dragon, we are inspired in our love and service of God to confront the dragons in today's world. For us, dragons come in various guises - people that perhaps we need to gently confront or perhaps issues of social justice. On our own we can't slay the dragons of hunger, poverty or violence but together in God we can contribute towards the battle against these modern dragons. As we reflect on this, may God inspire us to further action and service for Him. Wishing you Christ's peace, Andy Revd Andy Larkin PS. I'm sure you will all join me in welcoming Dennis Stone as our new Warden at Fenny Bentley. The 'Big Thank You' project is giving people an opportunity to add personal well wishes to Her Majesty the Queen to special 'thank you' letters being displayed in many cathedrals and churches around the country. Containing an introductory paragraph by diocesan bishops, the letters give the public a chance to say a few words in appreciation of 60 years of loyal service. Each of our parish churches will have a letter displayed between the 1st of June and the 24th June and all parishioners are very welcome to add their signatures and messages. Once compiled into one Big Thank You letter later in the year, the letters will be delivered to Buckingham Palace.
