Annual Festival and AGM 2009

This year's Melanesian Annual Festival was held at Slewyn College, Cambridge on 19th September. The day was a great success with people attending from around the British Isles. We welcomed the two Brothers studying at Chester University and Ellison Mason living in Plympton. Our Eucharist was held in the Chapel and Selwyn's communion silver was used during the service. The preacher was Bishop Michael Langrish who retired as Chair of the MM Trustees at the AGM. To read his sermon click here.

Our thanks go to Elizabeth Stratton, the College Archivist for preparing a display of Selwyn's and Patteson's letters and artefacts, and to Hugh Shilson-Thomas, Dean of Chapel for all his help organizing the day.
