Members enjoyed a lovely Easter demonstration in April by Janet Ward entitled “Easter Inspirations”.

Janet produced five arrangements, for example a Pot-eau-Fleur, an oasis ring with tulips and eggshells, an Easter bonnet and a test tube design, plus a pedestal arrangement. Flowers included huge red roses, tulips, white roses, daffodils and mini gemini. All arrangements were raffled at the end of the meeting much to the delight of members. Tea/coffee/biscuits followed the meeting.

Our next floral meeting will be held on Thursday, May 8, at 2pm at the Dobwalls Football Club, Lantoom Way, Dobwalls, Liskeard PL14 4FL. This will be a demonstration by Julia Harrison from Exmouth entitled “Relax and Play”. New and old members are very welcome to attend. Visitors £5.

A service was held at St Melor’s, Linkinhorne at 10am when tower ringer, Sally Gisbourne tolled a bell 33 times representing the 33 years of the earthly life of Jesus.

The service was led by Lay Minister, Roy Cooper who explained that the point of the service was not only to enable the worshippers to maintain and increase their relationship with God, but also for those who are searching for a purpose in life to find a way forward.

Being Anglicans we believe that the spirit of God is with us, now and always, therefore we need to act accordingly.

The service was based on the Gospel of John, chapters 18 and 19, interspaced with readings from Psalm 22 by Brian Norris, Judy Cooper, Nigel Drew, Andrew and Sarah Doney, and Kim Howat.

The ‘Service of the New Light’ took place on Easter Day at 6pm on April 20 at St Melor's which was led by Lay Minister Andrew Doney. The service began with the new Pascal Candle, representing the risen Lord as the Light of the World, which was processed to the chancel by a member of the congregation, Zena Jones. It was then placed in the Sanctuary by Andrew.

A welcome was given to Canon Pat Robson who administered the Eucharist. During her sermon she guided us through the last days of Jesus’ life from Palm Sunday to his Resurrection via a map of Jerusalem which she had given us.

The Gospel was read by Lay Minister, Roy Cooper, the Epistle by Russ Hanson, the Offertory was taken by Sarah Doney and the organist was Roger Webster.

Many thanks to everyone who had decorated the church so beautifully.
