PARISHIONER PICS:
Our friends, Dean and Nancy, enjoyed London! This is the oldest church in London. Reportedly founded in 675, though the evidence is disputed. Some notable entries in the parish register include the baptism of William Penn, founder of Pennsylvania, and the marriage of John Quincy Adams. Thomas More, who was beheaded at the Tower for refusing to sign Henry VIII’s Act of Supremacy was buried at the church in 1535.
