Cerys Williams Baptism January 21st
Ann Lowe Funeral and Burial February 7th
Ronald Addis Funeral and Burial February 10th
John Allan Funeral and Burial February 13th
Ann Lowe
Ann was the wife of the Rev David Lowe who was the vicar of Lyonshall for 23 years from 1977. Ann assisted David in his ministry here in many ways, helping with Sunday School and at fund raising events and always welcoming visitors to the vicarage. David and Ann retired to Cornwall but Ann’s illness took them back to Gloucester to be near their family.
Many old friends and parishioners were pleased to see David, Richard, Peter and Stephen back in Lyonshall, although not under such sad circumstances.
Ron Addis
Ron and Pat came to live in Lyonshall over 30 years ago to the house where Ron had spent many childhood holidays, the home of his uncle, Horace Addis.
He soon took on the treasurer’s office of the PCC and held it until his death in January this year. His expertise and dedication will be sorely missed.
He supported Pat in her role of church warden and did countless other jobs around the church that went unnoticed and which we all took for granted.
He also helped the parish in many other roles, helping with the Neighbourhood Development Scheme and other local organisations. He did a lot of work for the Memorial Hall and helped local people in any way he could.
Ron was always cheerful and fair minded, looking for the good side in every situation.
John Allan
John was very well known and admired locally as he was landlord of The Royal George Inn for 16 years from 1976. Together with his wife Elaine, they ran a very successful business with a much respected restaurant and very busy Bed and Breakfast trade.
John and Elaine retired in Lyonshall and John worked as a volunteer hospital driver. He enjoyed fishing and worked as a ghillie on the river Wye.
Titley Lunch
This year’s lunch took place on March 8th with not a little worry about snow on the car park etc after the severe weather the weekend before! As usual, tickets were sold out and this year’s speaker was Deborah Moggach, the well known author who lives in Presteigne. We were enthralled by her most informative and humorous talk about some of the books she has written and how they have been made into films, the most famous of which has to be “The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel”. The lunch was delicious and many thanks to Sue Davies for organising the event and all the helpers on the day and everyone who provided food or donated items to the Draw. We made over £2000 towards church funds.

PEMBRIDGE MOTHERS’ UNION
I would like to thank all those who braved the snow and made our open meeting on February 28th a success, in most cases travelling from Shobdon or Kington. Marcia gave a lovely talk; and everyone joined in with the work (cutting cake, washing up, moving furniture etc) The event raised £52, half for Marcia’s orphanage and half to the projects our MU branch supports, Bibles for children at Pembriddge school, the MU overseas fund and the MU crisis intervention fund.
Best wishes,

Tapestry Group
Since completing and displaying the Pembridge Tapestries two years ago the group has been working on the Pembridge Map – an intricately embroidered piece of work showing all the houses and other important buildings in the village. The work is nearing completion and we hope to have it finished and on display in the church by the summer. The group, being led by Mary Tyson and Shirley Percy, has worked tirelessly to produce this second outstanding piece of embroidery.
The Pembridge Tapestries themselves continue to draw a large number of people to the village. They formed an important part in The Village of the Year competition on Channel 4 where they were described by the presenter Dr Alex Langlands as a unique and a wonderful way of telling the history of Pembridge – the village reaching the semi-finals in the competition. Watch this space! Gill Smith

Woodcock Fayre
Thank you to all who supported this event. It was a bigger event than last year and we hope for it to continue to grow again this coming year with a variety of different craft stalls attending.

Request for help when setting up church for events.
The PCC are asking if there is anybody who would like to offer their services to help set up the church or other venues for their events. We quite often need to move quite a bit of furniture to create the space required and wonder whether there is anybody who feels they could help with this. If you feel you could help, please contact any members of The PCC and we will contact you as and when required. Thank you.

We were unable to hold our Carol Service because of the snow.

Bible Studies
We (a small group of eight max.) are studying the Acts of the Apostles at present, which gives an account of how the early church started. We could learn a lot for our churches today about support and action. Dates and venues for these Bible Studies are in the Diary section of the magazine.
Prayer meetings are held on the first and third Tuesdays of each month in the Shobdon Methodist Chapel at 10.30 am, and last for about an hour. We usually pray for people in the villages who are ill, sick, or in hospital, or in other sort of need, and for the schools and their staff. Please let either John Andrews know (01568 708277), or Janice Moore (01544 387926) if you need prayer. Alternatively, come and pray with us. Prayer is powerful.

It has been a sad few months for the village of Staunton-on-Arrow.
We sadly lost Richard Bowen on 20th November 2017 after a long illness that was bravely fought. He was very much a stalwart of the village and his contribution as Churchwarden was very greatly appreciated. Richard was cremated at Hereford and there is to be a Memorial and Thanksgiving service on April 20th 2018 at St Peter’s Church, Staunton-on Arrow.
Major (rtd) Bernard May died on 5th December 2017. His funeral and burial were held on 11th January 2018 at St Peter’s Church. He is remembered with great fondness in the village. He was also a central figure in village life during the latter decades, and a leading figure in Church life as Treasurer and Churchwarden.
Robert (Bob) Woodward of Forge Cottage died 29th December 2017. His funeral service was held on 15th January 2018 at St Peter’s followed by cremation on the following day. It was a privilege (not known by many) to have living in the village, a retired Fleet Air Arm Pilot who later captained Vickers Viscount and DH Comet airliners.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of these who have left us.
Rhayader Male Voice Choir will be giving a concert in St Peter’s Church, Staunton-on-Arrow, on Saturday 14th April 2018 starting at 7pm. More details to follow.
