REVEREND JOHN ROWLAND FUND

The PCC discussed the idea of a permanent memorial for the life of  John, a much loved and respected Vicar of this Parish.
 It has been agreed that John would have wished to have a “living memorial” rather than a static one in the form of a fund in John’s name to be used to support local people attending Bible training, children and teens attending Christian summer camps, where they receive Bible Study and for similar training, (e.g. potential Lay Readers etc.) PCC members will personally make donations to start the fund and are inviting members of the congregation, businesses and the community in general and other Christian based organisations to join in keeping John’s memory alive by donating to his “Living Memorial”
