Revd William Whyte was the officiant and preacher. In his sermon he relected on the meeting of Mary and Elizabeth both of whom were pregnant, drawing our attention to the fact that one was considered too old to bear children and the other possibly too young yet through God's grace both had become bearers of his message. As christians we have a responsibility to bring God to other people, not least we who are servants of the sanctuary. The future growth of our chapter and the Guild in general is dependent upon us making God real to people around us.
Afterwards we enjoyed some refreshments. We are grateful to Fr Whyte for leading our worship and to David Murray for paying the organ; and to Canon Anthony Ellis and the people of Hampton Poyle for making the church available to us.
Present: Revd William Whyte; Bros. Ben Heffer, Trevor Langrish, Ken Belcher and Dennis Dean; Srs. Susan Greenaway, Jenny Dowdeswell, Angela Dean; and seven friends and supporters.
