This year’s festival will be on Saturday 5th July from 11.00am to 4.30pm.

It is less than 8 weeks now until our Flower & Craft Festival; thank you to everyone who has already committed to taking part. If you have not taken part before please consider doing so this year. It is part of our mission here in Leigh to give local people an opportunity to experience what our Church is all about, especially in this Jubilee Year of Hope.

We are asking you once again to get creative, in flowers, arts and crafts. None of us are professionals, we are not expecting perfection ! There will be plenty of people on hand to help you if you need it.

The theme this year is the hymn,

‘O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder consider all the worlds Thy Hand has made…….’

So the focus is on creation, but this year we are also celebrating the opening of our beautiful church 100 years ago. We are also in a Jubilee Year, the focus of which is ‘Hope.’ We are to be pilgrims of hope in our very troubled and dangerous world. So there are many themes to choose from. Photographers, artists, needleworkers, carpenters and gardeners, we would like as many people as possible to be involved in creating a beautiful and powerful message for our local community of Leigh.

We are not asking for professionalism, although professionals are very welcome indeed ! Just your enthusiasm.

If you would like to be involved in creating something for 5th July please co
