Vicarage Notes

Dear friends, 

The following words were broadcast to the nation by King George VI on Christmas Day 1939. From the book “God Kows” by Louise Haskins, they struck a note of hope for people at a difficult time. 

“I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year, ‘give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown’. And he replied, ‘Go out  into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God. That shall be to you better than a light, and safer than a known way’.” 

Really, they’re fitting words for any New Year as we continue along our journeys, with experiences that may be sometimes joyful, sometimes sad, and oftentimes perplexing.

Our thanks to all who decorated the Church so beautifully and to all who shared in the special services – as ever, it was lovely to see good support. 

God bless, God speed, and happy New Year!
