Thank you to the goodgym Team
I begin by offering a big thank you to the sixteen women who made up the GoodGym team who visited All Saints last Wednesday evening, 30th June 2021.
Please click the link to Amy Lovell’s excellent report on the evening.
Ken Smith and I welcomed the ladies along with our Polish friend Adam (who is doing wonderful work around the church grounds) as they jogged, ran, walked and cycled their way to the church. On arrival at 7.00pm they went straight into action and in one hour they made the Quadrangle look the best it has appeared for quite some time. All the weeds and grass around the edges of the grass were pulled away and neatly bagged up ready for the tip. Other members of what, I believe, represented a record turn-out for a local group turned their hands to painting the skirting boards within the Parish Centre where we are currently worshipping.
It was a wonderful evening with the members in their bright red GoodGym tops offering community work with smiles on their faces. It was humbling to receive this outstanding community work and they are going
to return on 21stJuly to finish the painting in the Parish Centre. It was National Thank You Day on Sunday so from all at the church we thank the GoodGym members for their example of keeping fit and by offering support to the local community.
