    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.
     

    At this time may we all be renewed in our discipleship as we travel through Worship during Ascension and Whitsuntide
