St Thomas Celebration Weekend
June 24th and 25th 2023
As St Thomas a Becket’s feast day is on December 29th we never really get an opportunity to mark the occasion, so this year we are holding a “Summer St Thomas Celebration Weekend” on June 24th and 25th.
There will be “Teas in the Churchyard” on both days – 3pm to 5pm (with “Teas in the Church” if it is wet!).
On Saturday evening (7pm for a 7.30pm start) there will be a talk in St Thomas’ about the building and the evolution of the Parish – given by Sian Lewis and Tony Coverdale. The talk is in association with the Widcombe Association. Ticket price will be £10 (WA members £8) to include a glass of wine/soft drink.
The celebration weekend will be rounded off with a service of Evening Prayer with popular hymns at 5.30pm on the Sunday.
We really hope that lots of people will join us for this special weekend to celebrate our beautiful building and the feast of St Thomas a Becket.
All donations and profits will go towards the cost of roof repairs to the vestry at St Thomas.
