Rufford really was in harmony on Saturday evening for a very special service celebrating 150 years of St. Mary the Virgin Rufford with Holmeswood Church.
Held in the presence of the Rt Rev Phillip North CMP (Bishop of Burnley) the church was packed to sing a selection of hymns chosen by members of St Mary's PCC, Rufford WI, Rufford C of E Primary School, staff at Rufford Old Hall, local farmers, Rufford Vets, Mayor of West Lancashire Councillor Gaynar Owen, The Rufford Village Society, local uniformed organisations, Rufford PC and local transport services.
