Jay & Dale lived in the village of Howe (Norfolk), which is a parish of the benefice of Poringland, and they regularly attended St Mary's church at Howe.

In September 2008 they attended the Alpha course that Andy and Debbie were running in Poringland, which had a profound affect upon their lives. Following this they decided to attend a confirmation course run by Rev'd Robert and they were both confirmed in January 2009.

During the Aplha course they felt they were being led to move out to India to work full time with the orphaned children there.

Unfortunately on July 26^th this year we received news from Dale that Jay had died suddenly of a heart attack.

The photographs below are from when Jay and Dale started working with the orphan children in India in 2009.  Her love for the children is evident and although she will be sorely missed by all her friends and family their one solace is that when she died she was doing something that she loved, caring for children.
