Before the Guild was formed, flower displays for the whole of the church year was done by Brother Malachi. When he left the parish, he asked two friends if they would take over the organisation of flowers at Christmas and Easter.
Since then the Guild and flower duties have grown and we arrange flowers for the high altar weekly. We are fortunate enough to be given an allowance.
What we do
- We work on a rota basis and in pairs and all meet twice a year (including Fr Peter) to discuss our Christmas and Easter flowers.
- We also have ladies that regularly arrange the side altars.
- Over the years the Guild has organised two very large flower festivals involving other churches in the town, which also gave us the opportunity to receive many visitors to our beautiful church.
