Churches Festival
This year we put on an exhibition of contributions made by members of the Royal Flying Corps and the RAF whilst stationed at Scampton and South Carlton during WW1. The exhibition included video and music. There was a prayerful reflective walk laid out around the churchyard telling some of the stories of those buried in the Commonwealth War Graves.
A great big thank you to all those hard working people who helped out, especially baking the scones to take part in the ‘sconathon’. We raised just over £200 but more importantly we shared our vision of creating a ‘Community Church and RAF Heritage Centre’ here at Scampton. The reaction was really encouraging with comments like ‘What a change from last year – the chairs make it so light and welcoming’ and ‘Wow this church looks alive!’
Thanks again everyone – Sue
