Vicar on a Bike and Keinton Mandeville Reordering
Keinton PCC has for several years discussed making the building more accessible and versatile, removing the trip hazard of the pew platforms and making space for wheelchairs, push chairs and for us to do things differently. We intend to keep four pews which will be able to move, and to have chairs for most of the congregation. Some of the chairs will have arms.
There are currently six chairs in Keinton church, please do sit on them, and note your preferred chairs [first, second and third choice] on the yellow sheet stuck on the vestry door.
To raise some funds for this Jane Durham is planning to cycle 275km this summer. She is going to visit 15 of the 17 other St Mary Magdalene Churches across the diocese over five days.
She would love people to sponsor her, and to encourage others to do so too.
21 July Sparkford and Stowell [48km]
28 July Ditcheat and Upton Noble [50km]
21 August Exford, Winsford, Withiel Florey, Clatworthy and Taunton [58km]
27 August Barwick, Cricket Malherbie and Stocklinch [64km]
15 September Great Elms, Chewton Mendip and Wookey Hole [67km]
With 54 estimated cups of tea, many portions of cake/handfuls of nuts and a lot of prayer!
Jane says, ‘Please do support me, and if you’d like to see me on the road then follow the Instagram account for details of where I will be when. My fundraising goal for this challenge is £15,000 please help if you can.’
