This will be a splendid opportunity to thank God for his presence, his Gifts and his power - in a service that will involve familiar uplifting music and opportunities for prayer and study.
50TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION. On Saturday 5th June, Barnston Village Hall will host an Open Day to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the opening of the Hall. This is the only civic facility in the village, and plays an important part in providing space for community groups and family parties. Why not drop in sometime between 10.00am and 4.00pm and share in the festivities?
