Rev.Sophie opened the service with a warm welcome to everyone and our guest preacher, the Archdeacon of Cardigan, Eileen Davies OBE, founder of Tir Dewi.
It was a great pleasure to have Archdeacon Eileen as our guest preacher. “She is a breath of fresh air” a member of the congregation commented.
The children also played an important role in the service by bringing forward the symbols of the harvest, gifts that God has created.
This included the harvest of the cornfields – oats, wheat, rye and barley.
The harvest of roots – swedes, turnips, parsnips and carrots.
The harvest of seeds for next year’s crops – of clover, hay and corn.
The harvest of vegetables – peas, potatoes, beans and salads. The harvest of pears, apples, berries and herbs.
The harvest of flowers, the finest blooms from our gardens and our fields.
The grain and the grape, to represent our Saviour taking the bread and the wine.
We were also grateful to have Seimon Morris play the music. You can see a clip of the children dancing to the last hymn on our Facebook page.
Following the service and thanksgiving we shared a homemade soup supper. It was a lovely end to the evening.
Thank you to everyone who attended.
