[Ely Events] Nicholas Ferrar Day at Little Gidding: Saturday 3 December

[Simon Kershaw]

    Celebrate Nicholas Ferrar Day at Little Gidding

Bishop David Stancliffe will lead the annual commemoration on the feast 
day of Nicholas Ferrar at Little Gidding on Saturday 3 December at 10.30am.

Come and join the Friends of Little Gidding at this famous little church 
in western Cambridgeshire, made holy by the prayers and lives of 
Nicholas Ferrar and his family in the seventeenth century, and the focal 
point of T S Eliot's last great poem.

David Stancliffe, recently retired Bishop of Salisbury and former Chair 
of the Liturgical Commission, will preside at the Festival Eucharist, 
and afterwards will give a talk in Ferrar House. The talk is followed by 
lunch at the House.

All most welcome!

(If you are planning or hoping to come, it would help the organizers to 
know how many to expect for the service and, especially, for lunch. 
Please email the Secretary of the Friends, Judith Hodgson 
<hodgsons at phonecoop.coop>.)/
