Hello,
Dear Friends
I'm Andrew Dawson. I'm the Priest in charge at St. Thomas'. That's me in the above photo last year, with our then church wardens, Mrs. May Broome and Dr. Graham Lees, when the weather was a bit less windy than this year.
We are proud to be an active part of the Church of England, and we also welcome people of all faiths for fellowship.
We are now actively promoting the church and grounds as a location for film and television. We will provide the link to the promoting company's site when it is activated, but in the meantime you can view the publicity photos in our galley, click here. Due to the trees in the grounds the external pictures had to be taken from close to the building, hence the distortion which makes the spire look very stubby on some of the pictures. Perhaps we should try again from further back in the winter! The last time St Thomas featured in a major production was 11 years ago in 'Sex Chips and Rock and Roll'. Click here for a short extract from Episode four, which shows a wedding at the church.
Every summer I imagine it will be a quiet time – this hardly ever turns out to be the case, except when I’m on holiday. One activity on holiday is reading books – I recommend ‘We are Muslim, please’ by Zaiba Malik. I have published an extract and reviews elsewhere in the magazine.
The upcoming events of the week, together with news and prayer requests and thanksgiving can be found on our weekly notices page, with additional detail in Monthly Magazine and Events and all parish events, regular and special, are listed in the calendar.
