Rycroft MU

Our MU event at St Nicholas, Ryecroft opened with midday prayers led by our new Chaplain, Fr Richard Parker. Lunch was served afterwards and everyone agreed it was lovely. After lunch Rob took over ,as usual , with his light hearted and fun Irish Bingo. There was a lovely atmosphere and,  even though not as many came as usual, we were very happy with our hard work and effort and have been able to give £100 to A.F.I.A. and £65 to Indoor Members. Thank you to our generous and loyal supporters.
