WI: Christmas Festivities My dear Friends,
‘All good things come to an end’ we are told when we are young and at first sight
that sounds like a very negative commentary on life. Equally true surely would
have to be ‘all bad things come to an end’. Anyhow as far as Felicity and I are

concerned, these years since we moved here in September 2015 have been very
good years and we want to thank you all for the loving support so many of you
have given us.
Actually, good things often lead to other good things and as we start off in our
new life, we are both looking forward to many unexpected blessings. I have some
ideas about what retirement will mean.... certainly a change after over 46 years
as a Parish Priest....and before that growing up in a Vicarage! It is all an adventure
into the unknown. The one thing we can know for certain is that God will still be
the God who cares for us and whom we can trust.
