Methodists say Thanks and Farewell
The East Norfolk Circuit of the Methodist Church held a Circuit Celebration at Magdalen Way Methodist Church on Sunday afternoon, 20th July. The purpose was threefold:
- to present cheques to the Air Ambulance and Shelter from the proceeds of "Blessed Be" at the Marina Centre earlier this year. Both charities were represented to receive their cheques;
- the presentation of Long Service Certificates to local preachers, Mr Cyril Westgate - Acle - 70 years, posthumously to the late Mr Ernest Bensley - Caister - 50 years and Mrs Bessie Grimes - Magdalen Way Church and Mr R. Oxer - Catfield - both 40 years of service;
- the third purpose was to say farewell and God Speed to Rev Ian Worsfold who is moving to Nuneaton following 5 years of ministry in the local area.
The service was followed by a " Faith Tea"
