As many people will know, Mary Woodcock started Coffee Stop in November 2002, working hard to set it up and organise it. Thanks to Mary’s efforts it continues to run smoothly. I took over the running in June 2007 with Mary acting as my Deputy until she stepped down in January 2010.

Rev. Andrew O’Brien and Mary Woodcock at the Coffee Stop
Mary and Peter decided to move to Westcliff-on-Sea to be near family, and at Coffee Stop on 11th June the Vicar, Andrew O’Brian, presented Mary with flowers and a farewell card signed by many of the people who frequent Coffee Stop every week. Two delicious cakes were made for Mary by Angela Mead, which were shared with everybody present. We all send our very best wishes to Mary and Peter in their new life – they are both missed.

Library News The Library continues to be busy. We attended the Summer Fête with various displays aimed at promoting the Library. There was bookmark making for children and quizzes for both children and adults. The Story Time Sessions have been suspended during the Summer Holidays. melbournmagazine
