'Captain
Captain, long
Is the wind’s tongue
And cold your porridge.
Look up now
And dry your beard.
Teach me to ride
In my high saddle
The mare of the sea’
From ‘Salt’ by R S Thomas

In St Mary’s prayer cycle for June 2020, today we pray for those who go on holiday that they will be safe.

Please donate if you can!
In these unprecedented times, St Mary’s is reaching out and supporting our community in many ways, especially online. But with Services in church cancelled, we no longer receive income from collections, nor from hiring out the church and hall buildings.
If you can help us financially to continue to offer Christ's love to our community in these difficult times, as those before us have done down the centuries, please consider making a donation by debit/credit card and to Gift Aid it if possible, by clicking this link to 'givealittle':
Thank you!
