Today saw Ann lead her final service as an Elder in the Bansfield Benefice. A role she has held for over ten years. This closes the latest chapter in her association with the benefice. Having been a resident in Wickhambrook for many years now, Ann has been associated with All Saints' Wickhambrook where she was involved in running the Sunday School. Then for a number of years she was involved with the church in Haverhill.

But today we celebrated Ann's Eldership and we were led in a lovely service of Matins in one of her favourite churches, Lidgate St Mary. After the service speeches were given by the Rector, Revd Brin and the benefice's Reader, Philip. Ann was then presented with a token of our affection and thanks along with a card and flowers.

Thank you Ann for all you have done for the benefice over the years.
