As part of their 400th anniversary events, St Mary’s Church held a ceremonial planting of a Bermuda cedar tree.
A spokesperson said, “On Sunday, 4th October, St. Mary the Virgin, Warwick, held a ceremonial planting of a Juniperus bermudiana cedar tree as part of the church’s 400th Anniversary Service and Rededication.
“The tree was planted by Mrs. Carla Suite Wright, wife of His Grace, The Most Reverend Philip Wright, M.A., OBE, Archbishop of the Church in the Province of the West Indies, Primate, Metropolitan, and Bishop of Belize, together with Mrs. Melinda Williams of St. Mary the Virgin, with support from the Church Wardens, Vestry, and Congregation.
