Our Residents were happy to attend David`s last service and wished him farewell. He knows our Residents by Name and has kept services here for many years. But now it`s time to move on for David and we wish him well  in his new parish in Southall. And we welcomed Rachel, who was giving a moving Sermon on remembering.  We all received a yellow ribbon, as a token of remembering, those, that had passed away in the pandemic.
