Ed Rule - Memorial Service



The memorial service for our dear friend Ed Rule will be at St Andrew's Church Cherry Hinton on Wednesday 2 April at l2 noon. A very sad day for all of us.
May he Rest in Peace.

EASTER SUNDAY


It wasn't a good day last Sunday. It was snowing and cold. But people turned up to see the church flowers at Easter and to have home-made cream teas. Church notelets were sold and there was a popular book stall. £500 was made for church funds.
It was hard work for the organisers, but an enjoyable afternoon for all of us.

SAD NEWS FOR THE CHURCH COMMUNITY


Our dear friend and important member of our Church community,
Ed Rule, died on Good Friday after a short illness.
He was a highly involved and active member of our Church
and had recently retired as Churchwarden. He was a very well-known
and greatly loved person in the community and the world
is a sadder place without him.

Memorial service for Ivy Pamphilon




Recently one of the church members died. A memorial service was
held in the church recently to give thanks for her life. It was an
unforgettable service. Her family and friends read extracts from notes
she had made about her life - a truly amazing life. The music played
was beautiful and her daughter in law played the harp during the service - so lovely.

THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING INTERESTING TO SEE IN THE CHURCHYARD


Every time I look in the churchyard I see something interesting. Particularly the flowers are beautiful there most of the year round. I see people sitting in various areas, enjoying the weather when it is good and relishing the peace and quiet surroundings. At the moment the Spring flowers are out. Here is a view for you to relish.

THE TOWER IS FINISHED BUT THE QUEST FOR FUNDS GOES ON



Have you looked at the Tower of St Andrews recently? It is finished!! Everyone concerned has
raised £250,000 and the £40,000 needed to complete the project has had to be borrowed and
money will need to continue to be
raised to pay this money back.
Here are some before and after pics.
