On Sunday the 2nd October we celebrated our County Harvest Festival at Trinity Park in Ipswich. The service was organised as a joint event with St Edmundsbury Cathedral and it really was a fantastic afternoon.
So many of you joined us to worship together and to give thanks to God. The sun shone as we sang and danced and brought our Harvest offerings up to the straw Altar, with the sounds of live music and the noises of the Suffolk Punch, Suffolk Sheep and Red Poll Cattle. We hope you had as much fun as we did.
We'd love to say a huge thank you to all those who helped out in the run up to the event and on the day-
Ernest Doe Power of Sudbury for the agricultural equipment
E.R. & R.T. Rackham of Wickahm Market for the use of the lorry
Savills of Suffolk for the banner

John Fleming for bringing the Suffolk Punch
Stephen Cobbold for bringing the Suffolk Sheep

To all who took part in the service, in the music, readings, and presentation of the offerings and more
