On a beautiful summer’s morning, Mrs S Richards led the worship, taking ‘Encouragement’ as her theme.

George Bilkey read from the Psalms, and Margaret Bilkey played the organ. Several visitors were there, and Mrs Richards chose some loved and well-known hymns.

After the sermon, the congregation were asked to write down some way in which they could especially encourage someone in the coming week to take the piece of paper home and look at it during the week to remind them of what they had written, and to carry it through.
