The Creation Tapestries

Mr. Michael Rumsey has been a church member for over six decades, as well as our organist for the past fifty years.

Michael, an expert embroiderer as well as musician, spent over one full year making six beautiful tapestries.
Each one depicts an impression of the days of the Creation, inspired by the powerful, poetic and moving passages from Genesis, the first book of the Bible.

The works have been framed and are on permanent display around the walls of the church. You are welcome to come and admire them. See the Services, Regular Events and Special Events pages to find out when the Church is open.

Day 6. God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures, according to their various kinds; cattle, creeping things, and wild animals, all according to their various kinds.” So it was; God made wild animals, cattle, and every creeping thing, all according to their various kinds and He saw that it was good. Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, after our likeness, to have dominion over the fish of the sae, the birds of the air, the cattle, all wild animals on land, and everything that creeps on the earth.” God created human beings in His own image; in the image of God He created them; male and female He created them. Evening came, and morning came, the sixth day.
