Knowle Parish Church 600th Anniversary Celebrations
Knowle in Bloom and Entertained
The past two weekends have seen wonderful displays of local talent and commitment, as the community in Knowle continues to celebrate the 600th anniversary year of the buildng of the Parish Church.
Over 2000 people visited the Church during the weekend of 6th to 8th June to see an amazing range of displays, depicting the history and message of Christian love in over 25 floral creations. Planned over the past year and put together in a frantic, sleep-free week, Knowle Parish Church Flower Guild, supported by members of Flower Clubs from Knowle and Dorridge created an atmosphere and environment that tugged at every emotion of the visitors. Art and spirituality merged to leave those lucky enough to visit amazed at the power of the arrangements and touched by the message of the love of Christ.
The following weekend, concerts on Friday and Saturday evening attracted appreciative audiences to hear a wide range of local talent perform. Drama, song, music, comedy and speech were all on display from 10 local organisations, providing great entertainment.
Money raised from the events will go to World Vision - the charity chosen by Knowle Parish Church for special support throughout the year.
Just more evidence of a great community spirit and a reminder, if one were needed, of the talent and enthusiasm of the community in Knowle.
