In a recent event, the church invited past and present attendees, as well as Sir Oliver Heald - the MP for North East Hertfordshire.

The church's oldest member, Vi Brown, also attended the event.

Vi's father dug the trenches of the church's original building in the 1920s.

"We are thankful for the legacy we have and through our centenary year want to continue our celebrations and find new ways to be a blessing to others."
