On the 11th November 2018 the congregation of St Mary’s Church, Sullington, held our Remembrance service.
The congregation gathered in the churchyard at the E24 Submarine memorial for prayers and for the Last Post – played by Anita Newman, followed by the laying of wreaths by Terry Nowell representing the Submariners Association, Nathan Buckell representing the British Legion,and Gail Kittle representing the Storrington and Sullington Parish Council. The altar was adorned with a banner depicting the poppy fields of France, made by Sullington Brownies especially for St Mary’s Church, Sullington.
On the third Thursday of the month we enjoy relaxed and friendly teas hosted in different homes. It is a great opportunity for some of our parishioners – who are unable to come to Church on a regular basis – to have tea, biscuits (maybe even a slice of home-made cake) and a chat together, and to feel that they are still very much a part of our Church family.
