St Mary & St John Magazine – Jubilee News.
Many parishioners in both St John’s and St. Mary’s will remember the parish magazine which ran from 1981 to 2003. The magazine was edited and produced by Eric Scandrett ably assisted by the magazine committee. The magazines contained many articles contributed by parishioners, from parish news to local history. To celebrate the jubilee years of both churches a selection of magazines will be made available for download here. New ones will be added each month. We hope also to have a selection of paper copies available in church for you to view.
