Six members led by the Rev Olivia Werrett and helpers Cathy Gillman and Kim Truscott were off to take part in Greenbelt, the massive Christian rock and arts festival on Cheltenham Racecourse.

The Rector, the Rev Canon Dr Edward Bryant blessed the trip as the party prepared for their journey.

Fellowship members had been eagerly scanning the Observer to read details of their GCSE successes as the mini-bus was prepared.

The Rev Werrett told the party before they left: "There is so much to do and see. You will come back changed people..."

Fellowship members had raised money for their food and paid for their trip, which was also aided by generous donations.

Members will spend the weekend under canvas at Greenbelt in company with thousands of other young Christians taking part in Greenbelt, returning on Monday evening.
