lazarus Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Does anyone remember manor baptist church on prince of wales road in the early sixties? Do you mean the one at the junction of Prince Of Wales Rd and Harborough Avenue? I remember it well, it had a small winding drive up to it I believe.

Oh yes I forgot about that little church it was just up from my old school, St Theresa's, on the right hand side. I can never remember seeing anyone go into it though. Wasn't Doctor Valerio just up from it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiat500 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Used to go to manor baptist every Sunday, and Tuesday night school in the 50/60s. Sister Ruth always knew what day my mum baked meat pies, she would always call in to pick up a pie for her mum. Remember the whit Sunday walk to the park and also remember doing a play of Mary Poppins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erwil Posted December 2, 2013 Author Share Posted December 2, 2013 Hi Fiat500, I also went to Manor Baptist church each Sunday. Sister Ruth was a real special lady. Do you remember the Farmer brothers,Geoff and Bernard,what lovely people and also Vic Corker. Your user name struck a chord with me because whilst going to Manor baptist church I went out with a lovely woman for a short while called Christine who owned a Fiat500. I often wonder where the boys and girls who went to the church and the Friday night youth club are now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I have never heard of the people you mentioned. I stopped going to the baptist church about 10 years old when my mother had a disagreement with them.
