| Pentecost at St Agnes' |
| Found a Balloon? During the morning service this Sunday 12th June - the Feast of Pentecost - we fill the church with balloons to celebrate the birthday of the Church and the gift of the Holy Spirit. After the service the balloons are released outside carrying messages and prayers for peace and hope. If you have found one of our balloons please use the form below to tell us where you found it. Thank you. |
