Civic service Sunday 17th April at 3:00pm
We are delighted to be hosting this year's Civic Service, when we can remember all those who hold public office in our town and hold them in our prayers.
It will also give us the opportunity to give thanks for all the hard work that Pam Jones has done as our town Mayor.
We remember the long and rich heritage that this church has in local politics and how a number of our church members have held the office of Town Mayor, or served on the Town Council or on the East-Hants District Council.
