Rush Saturday Community Day


On Saturday 18th May We will be celebrating all things Rush and Redcliffe by holding a Fun Day at Faith Space and the South Church Yard. Our event will start at 1 pm and go on until 4 pm.


We will start the day making up fresh flower posies for Sunday's Rush and hopefully talking to the community about why and what they are for. Along with that in the same space, We will be decorating cakes with iced flowers, petals .and leaves. This will all be joined together with our arts and crafts tables. As well as all these wonderful hands-on things We will have a bouncy castle and professional face painter to keep the fun rolling along. We will be kicking a few footballs about in the South Church Yard to test your skills in our new goals that We will have there. Our Rush funday just wouldn’t be the same without food and drink, Therefore We will be running a BBQ for meat eaters and non meat eaters alike.


An amazing group of volunteers will be there from 12.30 to help set up and then run the event right up until 4pm and beyond. We know it will be a fantastic day, so come along and enjoy joy the fun,


ITS GONNA BE A GOODIN

I'm Beth, Life Event Coordinator. Over the past few months, we have been busy with baptisms, weddings and funerals. From small wedding blessings with only a couple and a priest present to large affairs with over 300 guests we feel glad to have supported people during key moments in their lives. I've noticed that life event services need cooperation from the whole team at St. Mary's: Cleaners keeping the church spotless; Clergy and Vergers running a seamless service on the day; talented Musicians providing deeply moving music; the Events team rearranging schedules and tours to fit services in the diary; much admin preparation before the day; careful diligence from our Finance Manager to ensure every penny of donations are sent to families charity of choice. The love and care put in by the team here is apparent to me and hopefully reassures you that St. Mary's will be here for you in both the highlights and hard times that you face. Beth Herbert
