Happy Easter Everyone!

Easter Celebrations have been very much part of life at Llanfair during this past Holy Week. We met every morning at 9.30am for services of worship and on Thursday evening and for a Good Friday Pilgrimage down to St Mary's Well.
Yesterday morning dawned bright and clear, comfortably warm and, in fact, with perfect weather conditions for our annual pilgrimage to Bristol Tump. We really couldn't have asked for better weather or a clearer view of our beautiful surroundings. We left church at 8am and walked up to the top of the mountain where we stopped to lift our voices in prayer and praise - joining the very loud "Baa-ing" of the neighbouring sheep! We then began a slow descent, stopping to look for tadpoles in the make-shift pond that floods the path just above the forest and then on down to "Black gate" where we recommenced our worship, using our Easter Service book; finally we returned to church where we shared a breakfast of boiled eggs, lovingly cooked by the wonderful Rena, and then we concluded our celebrations with a communion service.
