The church roof
The roof is probably the most critical part of any building.  It keeps in the heat and keeps out the weather.  Without the roof, we would be worshiping in the open air – in all weathers – and the rain would get into the building structure and cause it to rot.  The roof has to endure extremes of everything the weather can throw at it; from the weight of winter snow to the heat of the summer sun; from the drying blast of the wind to the constant washing with rain water.  It’s no surprise that maintenance of the roofs of our church, hall and cottage are one of the most costly and frequent items in our repair bills.

We had a great celebration for Epithany;  Over forty members of our congregation came were welcomed at the door with a glass of mulled wine;  we then enjoyed games followed by supper.
