Sunday 27th May 2012

As this News Sheet is late the Sunday Service details have been omitted.

This Sunday 27th May 2012 we celebrated Pentecost by going to Stoneleigh to hear Archbishop Rowan Williams address a congregation of nearly 1500 people at the Spirit of the Countryside Service. It was a beautiful sunny day, which was enjoyed by the 13 adults and 12 children who left St Anne and All Saints after a welcome cup of coffee and chocolate filled croissants.

For more details about our day, and a stunning photo of Clive guarding our al fresco church, go to the church website and look under 'News' on the sidebar.

Archbishop Rowan Williams visits Coventry


 


On Sunday 27th May 2012 the Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, attended and gave a talk at 'The Spirit of the Countryside' service held at Stoneleigh.
