Charlie’s Baptism is on Sunday 8 June at St Mary’s at 10:40am
|
Laura and David would like to give an open invitation to the congregation at church to Charlie's Baptism with a bring and share afterwards. If people could let them know if you are staying for the bring and share, which will happen after the usual tea & coffee in the hall, so they have a rough idea of numbers that would be great.
|
