St Patrick’s Day Brunch on the Terrace

To help celebrate St Patrick’s Day, the Emmanuel Church Community enjoyed a lovely ‘Brunch-on-the-Terrace’ after the Sung Eucharist on Sunday 17 March 2013. It was a delightful gathering of parishioners and friends for fine food and fellowship. Below are some nice photos of the day.  Enjoy!
