The
Banner Group has been in existence since 1993 following a challenge
from our minister at that time, Rev.Jill Whiley. The first banner was
made to celebrate Pentecost. Since that time we have made a total of
eighteen banners. These were made either to celebrate a special
occasion such as Christmas or Easter or for special services such as
Communion or Weddings. Some commemorated particular occasions in the
life of our Church especially when the refurbishment was complete and
when we had the Stewardship 'GROWTH' Programme. Other banners were made
to be
thought provoking and to enable people to focus their minds when they
come into Church. We are a small group that meet on an ad hoc basis as and when necessary
or when we feel inspired to make a new banner. We meet in our homes and
much of the work is undertaken at home.It is a privilege to be able to
make banners, which we feel enhance the Church and enable quiet
reflection. It is such a joy when we receive feedback, especially from
visitors, who find them so helpful and at times comforting
