A PERSHORE church member has received Maundy money from the Queen in recognition of her exemplary Christian service.
Bron Soan, from the Diocese of Worcester, met with Her Majesty at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor on Thursday (March 24) to receive the money, along with Bishop John Inge of Worcester.
Bron has worked hard to create an ecumenical link between the churches in Pershore and some of the most deprived children in El Salvador, through the charity ‘Aid to the Children of El Salvador’ (ACES).
In her 70s, she still regularly makes the demanding trip to the central American country to visit children in their homes and schools, along with other ACES members.
The tradition of presenting alms on Maundy Thursday goes back to the 4th century and comes from the Latin word meaning commandment.
Bishop John said: “It’s always very moving to see such a large number of people receiving this token of appreciation from someone who herself has given such extraordinary Christian service over so many years.
