Revd Yvonne receives a leaving bouquetA Church Family lunch held at the George and Dragon was the occasion for members and friends of Holmes Chapel Church to wish Revd Yvonne and Pete well as Yvonne retires from full time ministry and they move away from Holmes Chapel to live nearer to some of their family.

Thanks were given to Yvonne for her ten years of being superintendent minister in Dane and Trent Circuit. At the lunch, Yvonne and Pete were presented with gifts from Holmes Chapel and Goostrey Methodist Churches.

Holmes Chapel and Goostrey Churches are looking forward to the arrival of their new minister, Revd Anna Carrington who, with her husband and son, will be moving into the village in August.

For more pictures of the occasion, see the Holmes Chapel Photo Gallery.
