Thought for the Week
This week past commemorated the Battle of Britain. Sir Winston Churchill described the RAF as “ Never in the field of human conflict has so much been done for so many by so few”. Edward Hayes Plumptre in his hymn Thy Hand O God ( 1864) resonates this spiritually “ Through many a day of darkness, through many a scene of strife; the faithful few fought bravely to guard the nation’s life” . Heartening words in these still- covid dominated days! Stephen
