Greek Evening

    

On June 22nd 80 parishioners and guests were transported to a village square in Greece  by the sights and sounds of the Vicky Drakopanagiotaki traditional dance team, taught by Lola Spetsioti (our Visitor & Marketing Manager). A superb buffet of authentic Greek food was provided by Politis Delights who, along with Ithaca, belong to the Greek Cultural Society of Birmingham. 

 

Parish Picnic Sunday July 14th

  

The sun shone as about 30 members of varying ages from the church family made their way to the vicarage with rugs, chairs and a wide assortment of food. The vicarage lawn provided ample space for us to share our picnics together while watching the children enjoy the trampoline and other ball games.

 

 Treasure Hunt and Cream Tea Sept 7th 

  

In spite of the damp weather  30 people of varying ages followed the trail around the river, finding clues along the way. All participants were rewarded with some chocolate and a cream tea. Another 20 joined the group in the hall, transformed for the afternoon into a traditional “Tea Room”,  with embroidered tablecloths, pretty china and a 1950’s soundtrack. 

 

Harvest Festival Curry Night Saturday 12th October

  

 

Sixty of us celebrated our Harvest Festival this year with a curry!  The choice ranged from mild chicken to vegetarian, all wonderfully prepared by Marie and served with poppadom, mango chutney and tzatziki. On top of all this mouthwatering flavour, we then had ice cream, tea or coffee.  We were also challenged to identify pictures of some exotic food products and match them with the countries where they are grown.
