Guildford’s Holy Trinity Church in the High Street was visited twice in as many days by the mayor, Gordon Jackson, and his wife, Sue.

Thge pictures show the Mayor and Mayoress of Guildford’s visit to Holy Trinity Church on Saturday, June 11, to meet local representatives of the Queen’s charities. Pictures kindly supplied by Venetia Howes.

On Saturday, June 11, they chatted to local representatives of the Queen’s charities who had set up stalls to encourage people to find out more about their work.

Afterwards they took a guided tour of the recent works on the church, finishing by admiring the newly-decorated interior.

The following day, accompanied by other councillors, aldermen and officers of Guildford Borough Council, they attended a service to celebrate the Queen’s 90th birthday.

The service was led by the rector, the Revd Robert Cotton. The choir sang the anthem, The Call of Wisdom, by local composer, Will Todd.

The anthem was originally written for the Queen’s diamond jubilee in 2012 and given its first official performance by a children’s choir in St Paul’s Cathedral that year.
