THE UPPER ROOM - THE LAST SUPPER

Storyteller, photographer and violin player, Christian Stejskal, had the audience rapt while narrating chapters 13-17 from the Gospel of John. A fascinating performance of words, music and pictures took place with low-lighting in Chalvington church, on a chilly Spring evening. It was wonderful.

BEAUTIFUL CHALVINGTON CHURCH

The beautiful St Bartholomew's at Chalvington, in night-time glory in March. 
The church likely dates back to the 13th century, with the scattered village possibly existing since Roman times, and  was mentioned in Pope Nicholas IV's Taxatio Ecclesiastica of 1291. 

THE CEILIDH RETURNS!

A lovely group of 40 attended the return of our wonderful annual ceilidh. the first since 2019. Music and calling was  provided by the fantastic Sussex Pistols, food was donated by many who attended with an exceptional highland cow cake from incredible patissière, Yann. 
Our special thanks go to David Taylor and Sarah Carroll for all extra time and effort ensuring the night was a such a success; and to Thalia and Tony Brotherton Ratcliffe and Joan Royal for some wonderful raffle prizes.

THE EASTER BUNNY VISITs RIPE

Picture
Children from all three villages in the parish were invited with their parents and grandparents, to take part in an Easter egg hunt in the beautiful surroundings of The Old Rectory gardens beside Ripe church. The adults enjoyed tea, coffee and cake while ten little ones raced around the garden finding clues and more importantly, choccie treats to help mark a very happy Easter Sunday. 

If you would like your child or grandchild to take part, just email the Parish Administrator to book their place/s this year on Sunday 20 April.
