Our Worship

At our 10.15am Harvest Festival on 7/10 we enjoyed a visual presentation and talk given by Chris and Anji Dawkins on farming issues and life in our link diocese of Kagera. We learned how global warming is effecting the crops they are growing and we were privileged to welcome Thomas Shavu (Coordinator of the Church and Community Mobilization project in Kagera) who taught us to sing in Swahili... Bwana Asifiwe Amina! (Praise the Lord, Amen!). The service was well attended by the choir from Lavenham CP School, with their parents and grantparents – the children were given colourful hand-made mats from Kagera to take home. A most joyful Harvest Festival celebration was attended by around 90 adults and children, followed by a splendid Harvest Lunch thanks to the Friends of Lavenham Church with Chris, Anji and Thomas continuing to share experiences of Kagera with us.
