If you are in Manchester before May 14th, I thoroughly recommend a visit to the Cathedral to experience this series of paintings by Ghislaine Howard. The large, stark canvases vividly express the central gospel message in a powerful and challenging way. They are profoundly moving. There are accompanying leaflets providing further stimulation in the form of poetry and meditations.

Chocolate Raffle and Fondue
Simon and Summer at the chocolate fondue. We were sorry to miss Denise who was indisposed.
The event raised £110 for church funds, a big thank you to everyone who took part.

Chocolate Raffle and Fondue
Yes, we know it is Lent, but we have had special dispensation from Father Richard. Apparently, theologically speaking, Sundays are not part of the 40 days of Lent, so the Chocolate Raffle and Fondue event will be held in the Church hall after the 9.30 am service this Sunday, 7th March.

Winter Ball
Thank you to everyone who attended the Winter Ball at the White Hart. I am sure you will agree the evening was a great success and raised over £1,800 towards the replacement of the church boilers. It was simply a fantastic night. Sarah and Julie would like to say a special thank you to Morgan who compered the night and entertained us with his fabulous singing, and to the Susan Roberts School of Dancing dancers, who’s Can Can was amazing!
