Special service held as Alnmouth church celebrates its 150th anniversary
Celebrations took place to mark the 150th anniversary of St John the Baptist Church in Alnmouth.
The Coastland Churches community organised a special Songs of Praise service led by the Bishop of Berwick, Rt Rev Mark Wroe.


The event gave thanks for "150 years of faith, love, and service" with a celebratory reception following the service.
Among the guests were the Duke and Duchess of Northumberland and the Lord Lieutenant of Northumberland, Dr Caroline Pryer.
She cut the anniversary cake and said: “Huge congratulations to all the friends, residents, volunteers and clergy for a precious occasion. The church was beautiful. The flowers were poignantly special remaining in church after a recent service of Thanksgiving. The Brothers of Alnmouth Friary joined us too, fresh from the BBC Radio 4 Sunday Service of their coastal pilgrimage celebrating the journey of life.”
