St. Mary's Church Celebratory Dinner

It isn't actually true that being Lord Mayor is just one dinner after another, as anybody who scrolls through this blog can see. However 2019 is a year of anniversaries, and tonight we went to the fantastic Sketty Hall (pictured) to help them celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the re-consecration of this City Centre church, following its near destruction during World War Two bombing.

St Mary's is, of course, the civic church and even has a Lord Mayor's warden to look after whoever holds the office at services. It is important therefore that we support them in the same way that they support the City.

Guest speaker was the vice-Chancellor of the University of Wales Trinity St David, Professor Medwin Hughes and the Lord Lieutenant and the Archdeacon were also present. It was a wonderful celebration of the church and it's history, and hopefully the raffle also helped to boost their funds.
