BEESTON REGIS
FLOWERS WITHOUT FOAM — All Saints’ Church, Beeston Regis, are very pleased to be hosting an afternoon of flower-arranging appropriate for churches and without using florists’ foam on Monday 2nd September at 2.00pm. Our demonstrator is Amanda Seales, an experienced florist who has been involved with the flowers in the cathedral. Light refreshments will be provided and there is no charge (although any donations towards expenses will not be refused). This is an opportunity for the people in the Quintet Benefice to get together but any interested person is welcome, bring a friend – you do not even have to be a flower arranger – to what promises to be a most enlightening afternoon. An indication of your intention to come along would be helpful. Please email Judy Wilkinson at [email protected] if you can. “BEACON FOR BEESTON REGIS” will take place on Sunday 13th October with the ever popular “Hymns & Pimms” followed by a service commemorating 625 years of when Beeston-Next-The Sea became a “Regis” on the coronation at Westminster Abbey of Henry Bolingbroke, Duke of Lancaster, as King Henry IV on 13th October 1399. Hymns from the centuries will be followed by Beacon Lighting. Look out for further information in next month’s Quintet News!
