Forest Group URC holds annual joint service on 16 June

30/6/2019

Thank you to everyone who made our annual joint service on 16 June a joyful occasion.

We welcomed Neil Thorogood, Principal of Westminster College, Cambridge, to our pulpit, who gave an inspiring sermon encouraging us to continue to grow together as a group.

Together with our joint Elders’ meeting the previous day, it gave us a lot to think about.

The service held this year at Chingford was followed by a time of fellowship over a shared buffet lunch.
