RUDDINGTON
Members and friends of Ruddington Methodist Church enjoyed a wonderful day of celebration at the re-opening of the church on January 12th, after its refurbishment. The Boys' Brigade band headed a march round the village and there was a formal handover of the keys to the minister, Revd Peter Green by Mr Stewart Bloodworth, the building contractor, on the front door step.
Almost 300 people attended the service of thanksgiving, and everyone was delighted with the transformation of the church. The celebration was attended by the Mayor of Rushcliffe, who told an amusing story about the role of Mayor and made some thoughtful observations about the importance and value of a personal faith in God. The Chairman of the District, the Revd J Wesley Blakey, gave the address, encouraging persistence in prayer. He presented a long service certificate from the Methodist Church Music Society to Mr Oliver Blood, who has played the chapel organ for 66 years. Presentations were also made by Mrs Marilyn Hicks, the senior steward, to those people who had played an active part in the renovation of the premises, and she paid tribute to the late Geoff Clark, whose vision for the transformation of the sanctuary had been realised.
Thanks were recorded on the Order of Service to the architect, builders and subcontractors who made the vision a reality, and for the many generous grants and donations which had kept pace with the costs. Most of all, thanksgiving and glory and praise were given to God for all his blessings.
After the service refreshments were provided by the Women's Fellowship, though there was such a crowd that it was difficult for everyone to have a good look round!
On Saturday 8th March, from 10.30am to 12 noon, the Youth Group and Toddler Group will be holding a Coffee Morning with various stalls. The funds raised will be used towards the youth camp and equipment for the toddler group.
On Saturday 11 th April at 7 .I5pm we are holding a Concert by the St Cecelia Singers.
