Archbishop Justin starts the Ride & Stride<\/p><\/div>\n

Six\u00a0dedicated people from Christ Church with St Mary’s got up early on Saturday 13 September and cycled to Lydiard Tregoze. \u00a0At 10am The Most Reverend and Right Honourable Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury, gave a blessing to all those involved. \u00a0He then sounded a klaxon to launch the 30th Ride and Stride in aid of Historic Wiltshire Churches. \u00a0About 60 cyclists and walkers set off. \u00a0During the day Stephen Grosvenor, Elaine Guilding, Charles Russell, Caroline and Daniel Pitt and Keith Tredget cycled between 20-30 miles each and made over 100 church visits between them. \u00a0Their sponsorship so far, amounts to \u00a3500 and rising; half of the money comes back to our parish.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Many thanks also to those who sat in our churches and welcomed 38 visitors to St Mary’s and 42 to Christ Church.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It’s not too late to sponsor either Caroline, Elaine or Stephen – contact Stephen (s.grosvenor@gmail.com) if you would like to donate to the Historic Churches Trust.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
