On Saturday morning Lilian and I went down to Rick and Katie's in Greyabbey to babysit Reuben for a couple of hours while Rick and Katie got the church prepared for a Praise Evening that night.

Lovely warm day so I went up for a walk around the abbey at the top of the village. Lots of parents and children having Easter picnics. Don't know what the monks would have thought!

Even with the children about, there is always a quiet serenity about the abbey.
