Vases, vases everywhere!
At St John’s Church, Baston we are gradually accumulating a large number of vases that have been left on thememorial window. Whilst it is lovely to have some for people to use when they bring flowers, they are beginningto cause storage issues. We would like to ask that if you have a vase in church and you would like to reclaim it, please pick it up before the 28th February. At the beginning of March we will sort through the remainder and keep just a few and dispose of the rest.
