CaLLiNG aLL PETS

Ever eager to try something new and attract more people from the town. The Rector of St Peter’s Church, Seaford, is organising a service with a difference – an outdoor event at Blatchington Pond, on Sunday afternoon 5th September at 3pm.

It will be for the whole community, and that means in particular every kind of pet, big and small, even tiny, obedient or less so, on leads or swimming idly round in a goldfish bowl, maybe even a dozing tortoise. And if for some reason you cannot bring your actual pet, don’t worry, bring along a photo of him or her instead.

The service will be led by the Rector, the Rev Arwen Folkes, whose church of course is just up the hill from the pond. All will be very welcome to come along. For more information (and a weather check!) go to www.ebbchurches.org.uk

In a way this afternoon could be a kind of reunion for Arwen, because recently she and some willing helpers carefully conducted a walk of rescue all the way from the church to the pond – and very slowly. A group of baby ducklings and their mother had apparently paid an unexpected visit to Seaford Primary School to have a family swim in their pool, and were happily ambling back when they called at the Rectory next to the church. Arwen, alarmed for their safety, quickly gathered some (human) helpers and prepared to conduct this cute little party back home, making their way cautiously and very curiously down Blatchington Hill. It took a while; the ducklings were keen to wander into as many gateways as they could and needed plenty of gentle ‘shooing’ to redirect them.

Eventually they made it back to the pond, and all seemed to settle down quite happily. No doubt quite tired after such an excursion. Mission accomplished. We should perhaps stress that this little incident was not the spur to arrange this service, but if that little family of ducklings and mum are still present on that day no doubt the Rector will give them a special blessing.
