Rededication Of the Lychgate at St Marys and St Peters Church, Kelsale

Children, adults from school and some parents walked to Church this morning for the much anticipated rededication of the Lychgate.  Monies for the Lychgate fund had been collected as past of a restoration collection and work had now been completed.

Acting Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich, the Rt Rev Dr David Thomson carried out the rededication and the children enjoyed listening to his talk and interacting with him as he blessed the lychgate and the children.  Mrs Taylor read a reading from the bible and our two eldest collective worship monitors lead the congregation in prayer.  

Photographs of the rededication ceremony can be seen at the links below:

We felt excited and honoured to be a part of this special morning.
