Palm Sunday weekend events

The concert on Saturday by members of the Nottingham Youth Orchestra, ranging from 13-18yrs, thoroughly entertained an audience of approximately 70 people. The music was varied and the young people proved how dedicated they are to practising and performing on their instruments. We wish them lots of luck in their musical futures. On Palm Sunday, there was a lively service at the 9.30am at St Mary's. This was followed by an even livelier service and exciting parade at West Leake church, led by 'Danny Boy', one of the donkeys from Manor Farm Donkey Sanctuary.
Even Revd Glynis and Revd Claire had their photographs taken with him.
Lots of families brought the children to see him and he enjoyed all the attention. No doubt he will also enjoy the Easter Parade at the Sanctuary next weekend when the animals are dressed in their Easter bonnets.
