Fellowship Group

Fellowship
The Fellowship Group started around 1979 as the Liturgical Dance Group - a Dance Choir. What others expressed with words, the dancers expressed with movement, dance and mime. The members put various themes and ideas to music: these sometimes culminated in presentations during services, where a visual presentation could be meaningful or helpful, for example Harvest, Candlemas and Christmas. They were well received.

The dance element has receded due to the advancing age of members, hence the change of title, but the mutual support continues and they would welcome new members to join their small but enthusiastic band. They meet on Monday evenings in the Vestry for an hour and a half, in blocks of six weeks or so, and they reward their endeavours with the occasional social gathering.

Over the years, they have extended their evenings by including study of biblical themes, eg. Women of the Old/New Testament and discussion of any other topics which interest them. They also follow a Lent course every year, in an augmented group.

"This is our Faith"

At present, they are working through a book called "This is our Faith", which is a presentation of Church teaching and is stimulating debate among them: They will continue to use it for the forseeable future.

The evenings always include prayer and a quiet time.
