On Saturday 20th April about 20 folks (+ 1 dog) from Cheviot Churches attended a retreat day on Holy Island. Our group met in the URC St Cuthbert's Centre in the middle of Holy Island village. The day began with a period of worship, then some free time, a shared lunch, free time and finally a closing period of worship/Holy Communion. Thanks to Trish G and our minister Colin (in photo top-left) for organising and leading this event. We are very fortunate to live in such a beautiful area and to feel God's presence so closely all around us, both in creation and the saints that have worshipped here through the ages. There is St Cuthbert - of course - but also the more humble worshippers in the Presbyterian chapel who helped keep alive the faith for us to share today. The photographs show various participants - including the devout dog - and also the means of communicating with the minister before emails or WhatsApp!
