2008 Annual Festival Day
The Annual Festival of the Melanesian Mission will be held at St Martin in the Fields, Trafalgar Square, London this year on 28th June.
This year the event will be extra special as we welcome all nine of the serving Melanesian Bishops, their wives and twelve members of the Religious Orders – all of whom will be in the UK for the Lambeth Conference.
The day will have a celebratory atmosphere with ‘feasting’, worship, speeches, drama and music ‘Melanesian Style’. We will also be joined by the three Melanesian clergy currently serving in the UK, a former Melanesian Brother and Kate and Asim who have recently returned from teaching at Pamua, Makira in Solomon Islands.
The day will start from 10am with drinks and a chance for a chat with old friends and new. We will have a very short AGM for the Mission at 10.30am. We will then move in to the programme for the day including a Eucharist at 12 noon followed by lunch and the ‘presentations’!
The day should finish at 4pm. You are welcome to join us for all or part of the day.
Please let us know if you would like to attend for catering purposes. Either email Dave Friswell on mission@talktalk.net or phone 01284 701 988.
Kate and Asim
Kate and Asim are now back in the UK after eighteen months in Solomon Islands with the Melanesian Mission. If you would like them to come and talk to your church or group please do get in touch and we can arrange a date.
New email address for the Mission
Please note that the Melanesian Mission now has a new email address which is hopefully much easier to remember. The new address is:- mission@talktalk.net
Please change your address book accordingly and don’t forget to add this website to your ‘favourites’ list!
