Some photos of the lovely flower arrangements in Hope Parish Church to commemorate the 80th anniversary of V E Day.  The church is open every day if you'd like to see them and the next Welcome Afternoon will be held on Saturday 10th May 2 pm to 4 pm.

Have a look at these photos taken during Holy Week.  They include some taken in Emmanuel Church, the Walk of Witness from Caergwrle to Hope and some of the lovely Easter floral arrangements in Hope Church.

There were two special visitors to Hope Church at 11.oo this morning.  Miniature donkeys, Rosie and Nansi, came along to help celebrate Palm Sunday.  Younger members of the congregation enjoyed meeting the donkeys on their way in and taking them for walks around the churchyard afterwards.

During the service we were presented with a dramatization of the Palm Sunday story and palm crosses were distributed to everyone.

Afterwards there were Easter activities in the hall and refreshments including a slice of carrot cake made by Pat’s daughter, Sally.
​
Our thanks to Sally, the actors, Moel Famau Donkeys and to everyone else who contributed on this special day.

​What a delightful programme of festive items at the Christmas Soiree.  We were entertained by Christmas carols, songs and other musical items, funny stories, poems and even a fight between gladiators!
​
We enjoyed mulled wine and mince pies along with the fellowship and laughter.

Our thanks to those who organised the evening and to those who shared their talents, some of whom can be seen in these photos.

It's almost 12 months since MND touched the lives of our family.

Six months ago we decided to fundraise in aid of the MNDA- to support Individuals & Families within our local area – hence, the Craft Fair held in the Church Hall on Saturday, 4th November.

It was a resounding success, the community spirit here in Hope and our local area was in abundance and rather overwhelming at times.
The inventive and extremely talented Stallholders had such a wide variety of goods for sale, all very reasonably priced.

We were indebted to Hope Church for the use of the Main Hall & Refreshment Room and have pledged a donation towards the upkeep.
​
           The family wish to say ... “THANK YOU EVERYONE”
​
There was no figure in mind when organizing began, except being reminded – think 'big'! - So far, the sum of £1000 has been raised for the Charity, with a promise of further sales and donations.
