I received a lovely note from Barbara Griffiths of St Leonard’s Parish when I returned from my annual leave recently:

I wanted to share with you about this lady who was a visitor from England at St Peters.  She was telling me about this cross she had in her pocket, that went with her everywhere,  I shared with her the fact I had bought a card from Griffith when we were there a few weeks ago, with ‘The Cross in my pocket’ poem on it.

We then went together into our new (St Leonard’s Parish) building, and I opened the package with the new Tas Anglican (magazine) in it only to see the front page.  I turned and showed it to her.  She beamed and said “I want to take one with me back home”.

A great joy to her and to me.
