BIG Lunch

Sunday, July 19th

Basically, it's a party in our village - in everyone's street or village. On 19th July the people of Britain are asked to stop what they're doing and sit down to lunch together. Why? Well for lots of reasons really but mainly to put a smile back on Britain's face.

In Fulbourn, it will be a joint picnic on the Rec from 1-3pm – please bring your own picnic (hopefully of locally-sourced food)and come along and show your support for this endeavour.

More information about the project.

Rector survives!

The magic of Dr. Bondini

We were delighted to see that our rector survived decapitation on June 13th. The climax of a wonderful display of magic by Dr. Bondini in St. John's Church, Little Wilbraham, was the apparent beheading of Rhiannon ..... to gasps of disbelief from the enthralled crowd. Her appearance to celebrate communion the following day was accompanied by sighs of relief.
