Racing to Park - Holy Communion at St. Andrew's Colyton

Sunday Worship took us back to St Andrew's Colyton.
The service began at 9:30, so we were up unusually early.  This was partly due to doubts about parking space, the town is one long stream of parked cars on the edge of the narrow roads.  There is a car park, and it is free on Sundays.

The service itself was rather more traditional than we are used to.  A sung Eucharist, with 4 readings, and 4 hymns.  It's always nice to worship with the locals.  There were several special things happening.  Their celebration of 150 years of M.U.  They had guest bell ringers giving them eight bells and were preparing for the Icon project.

 

Listen to the peel in the video.

Afterwards we spoke to a few people.  They are fortunate to have a number of retired clergy helping out. 

 

We had lunch in The Kingfisher - as recommended by a member of the congregation.  It was very good.

Then back to watch the F1 British Grande Prix, which had a disappointing ending.
