A HARVEST celebration service was led by Mr Courtney Drew at a packed Bridgerule Chapel on Monday, October 2.

Mr Drew has been a popular and regular Lay Preacher within the Bude Circuit for over 50 years and always enhances his services with some of his own poems, so there was no surprise when he read his ‘Ode for Bridgerule’.

Mr and Mrs Robert Honey donated the flowers, which had decorated St Bridget’s Church the previous Friday, to celebrate their daughter Rosalind’s wedding, which, along with the sale of produce following the service, boosted the chapel funds by £433.68.

The increasingly in demand Tamarside Singers also sang during the service.
