Hi Everyone,

I hope that everyone is well and fingers crossed that everything will be opened up on the 20th July.

Congratulations to Simon Burrows and Charlotte Eames (our Church Warden) on their recent nuptials, we wish them all the best.

Also Congratulations go to Christine Walker who was ordained on the 3rd July at Blackburn Cathedral (pictures can be viewed on our Over Wyresdale Church fb page).  Many thanks to Holly Huset for the beautiful stole that she made for Christine on behalf of the parish.
