The clocks went forward an hour last night and we are now in British Summer Time. Somebody did move the hands on the big clock at St Helen’s Church even though they did not ring the bell.
I loaded the service sheets up to the Trinity Church Web Site on Friday evening so that people could worship together while apart if they wished.
Last night we forgot to turn the clock on and so would have joined the service late. But it didn’t matter today.
There is an old saying that the church is the people and not the building, and so this picture gives an idea what Trinity Church looked like this Sunday Morning. Some people are not on it because they come from places further afield such as: Sutton Courtenay, Dorchester, North Leigh, Tubney, Longworth, Oxford, and Wantage (source August 2016 Trinity Directory).
Diana sent me this picture of a rainbow and toys seen at the town end of the Radley Road.
There are also some rainbows down East St Helen Street. Here is one in one of the oldest houses in Abingdon.
Here is another from a house very close to St Helen’s Church.
It is a week since the churches and schools closed down. So keep safe and be kind to each other.
Thanks for continuing to post in these difficult days, Alistair.
Hear hear.
I’ll second that. Thank you.
Well done for keeping us informed when we can’t get out. Are you going to keep going until Lockdown Day 182 (assuming it lasts 6 months)?
