As part of his "Follow! Join the conversation share the journey" tour of
Herefordshire, the Rt Revd Richard Frith the 105th Bishop of Hereford
along with other members of the Hereford diocese visited Leominster
Priory's Messy Church yesterday. Part of the focus was on the
refugee crisis, the church has been a drop off centre for donations for
the refugees, to help the Messy Church youngsters understand they were
encouraged to make boats and little "refugees" from paper, there was
also a world map where children were encouraged to stick notes saying
what they had done or could do to help. Revd Frith spoke to those
attending during "celebration" time where the group leader Kathy Bland
told a story and invited younger members of Messy Church to ask
questions of the Bishop, who also got involved in the singing and
dancing later on. There are plenty more opportunities to attend a
"Follow" event with Bishop Richard including Messy Church at Withington
Village Hall on Saturday 26th September at 3:30pm.
