After waiting over 45 minutes to see the Archbishop of York walk through the village (he was running a little later than scheduled!) the “Long” family were delighted to finally meet with and talk to Archbishop Sentamu. When he discovered that little Amelia hadn’t yet been baptised he offered to do it there and then, much to their surprise and delight! So in the middl;e of the village, by the flooded stream and in the pouring rain ‘Amelia Florence Jones’ was baptised into the Christian Faith.
How fabulous!!
