DECEMBER  2020

Revd. Jane is still at home in the Rectory remaining indefatigable in the face of her illness and diagnosis.

Her cancer is irreversible and she gets very fatigued but she also remains very interested in all that goes on in our villages.

She is grateful to everyone for their messages of support and love and is happy for people still to contact her by phone.

 Mornings are easier for her and some days are better than others.

Please continue to hold her in your prayers.
