Comments on Ride and Stride - Saturday 13 September 2008
Firstly, a very big thank you
to all who took part in yesterday's Ride and Stride on a day which saw the
best weather for a long, long time. I hope riders and striders had a
successful and enjoyable day out and managed to visit lots of churches and
chapels.
Secondly, thanks to all those
who manned their respective churches and chapels for part, or all, of the
day to welcome visitors. I personally appreciated the warm welcome
and offer of refreshments offered by those manning many of the churches I
visited in and around Shrewsbury and in the Wem & Whitchurch Deanery.
Thirdly, I very much regret
that some churches which were shown on both the printed list and the web
site as being open and manned, fully or partly, were not in fact open, or
had not displayed any poster or signing-in form. I intend to follow
this up in one or 2 cases to find out what went wrong. It was, I
know, very disappointing to reach a church or chapel to find nothing
there.
With very best wishes
