 CHOIR
It is becoming unusual to find a choir regularly on attendance in village parish churches. However in St Lawrence Church we keep this tradition alive and normally a Sunday morning will see a robed choir in the choir stalls. The number varies, but we can usually rely on eight members. Sometimes, for special occasions, we are able to augment the choir. This tends to happen for festivals such as Christmas. Another tradition that has developed is to combine with the choir from our sister church in our neighbouring village of Easton. Of course we would love to welcome some new members, so anyone accessing this who is interested and lives near enough please come along on Friday evenings when we practice 7.30 – 8.30 p.m., or contact Malcolm Mogford at moglin980@aol.com FRIENDS
OF WESTBURY CHURCH We raise funds by subscription and social events, including light hearted car rallies and suppers. These have so far raised £10,000 towards building repairs and other items such as new bell ropes. New members are always welcome (annual subscription £10), and anyone interested in joining should contact the Secretary. |
