A wonderful site dedicated to a lady who was most gracious when we had the privilege of visiting her last June. May God bless all who visit St Hilary's church!

Fantastic! I am hoping to design and build a similar chapel (will be converted to living accomodation) Was this built from scratch or from plans?

Dear Andrew and Sarah, For Once I am lost for words! What a thoughtful, moving and beautiful way to cherish the memory of Sarah's mother. It is wonderful to see how much pleasure your efforts have already given to so many people and will give to many more in the future I'm sure. The intricacy of your work, both cosmetically and in your development of the characters suggests to me that St.Hilary's could easily translate into a wonderful and enchanting Christian children's book.
You are both truly wonderful, talented people and I am so glad that God made sure our paths crossed once again.
I will be in touch soon,
God Bless,
James Bridgwood.

Dear Sarah and Andrew,
Often when people pass on maany tributes are made/recited. However, the best tribute anyone can be given is the appreciation of what they have left behind. In you Sarah, your mother has left behind a truly wonderful human being full of compassion and love. For me there is no better tribute/testament to a person's character. May God bless your Mother's soul and may she be with you in all that you do.As I have said before, this site is a wonderful tribute to your Mother's memory.
Love, James.

This is my first visit to your site. I think it is wonderful. It must have taken you ages to do, so much detail. A
wonderful vehicle for teaching and also a family enterprise. Reading the guest comments, it is great to know that you have touched so many hearts across the globe. Well done and keep going. You could branch out into Bible stories for the 3-5 year olds (retelling, I know they would love them.
God bless

It's twee to say your Palm Sunday page was a prayer answered, but it was. It's 4am; Sunday School's due in 6 hours, and I've been busy on night duties. Your lesson plan is ideal; templates wonderful and greatly reassuring.
Any more Sunday School sessions planned?
Thanks, Bob.
(Sunday school = 1 baby, 2 tots, 1 tweenie, 2 primaries & quite a lot of mess.)

I was a former Sunday School teacher and the lessons were broadly similar. We did not have the advantages of all the extra facilities and it was interesting to follow them through.

I'm a catholic altar server (or Acolyte) from Hong Kong who came accross this Really Wonderful site and promise I'll come every now and then. Great work, superb ideas and very heartily devotion - to both the deceased and the Lord. I was originally looking for a miniature church to put in my city of buses and trains, and ended finding this simple and lovely church far better than any of those 'detailed' works - they lack such sipirit anyway~~
If I have time I'm sure to make one myself too!!
God be with ye!^^

What a wonderfull site !!! We always go on vacation to England and love the country so much and to see this church, it's like to be in England and be part of the village where the church is. It's a lovely tribute to your mother and a masterpiece !!!I hope to return every week to see new things. I also just read the article in the Dollhouse magazine. I love the story behind it all. Kind regards and compliments on the site again, Bianca from the Netherlands

What a wonderful tribute to your mum. I have enjoyed looking around your church and reading about the Vicar and his flock.
It reminds me of the Sunday School Anniversary that was held every year in my home church. The Sunday School children took over the choir stalls for the morning and evening service. We sang and gave bible readings and read stories, that children had written, to the congregation.
What a wonderful tribute to your mum.
Does the Bride reappear? I will be visiting the sight regularly to find out.

What a lovely idea. I have truly enjoyed viewing your website, and will check back in the future to see what new things have been going on.

Hi Sarah, I would like to remind readers of your wonderful church. Do you have any high resolution images (of the wedding? Harvest Festival) that I could use? I'd like to give out the website again as well as remind readers of our original feature back in issue 88. If you don't have any images, can I have permission to reproduce one from that feature?
I hope that you and your are well. I have so enjoyed re-visiting the church and its life.
MANY THANKS

A lady In Australia sent me the URL of your site, as I write a page each month on the New Zealand website www.nzorgan.com (You click on the stop-knob "A Muse" to reach my pages)
I intend to mention the organ at St Hilary's with a link in a page in the near future.
However, Jenny Setchell, the webmistress runs a competition form organ lovers each month. (click on the stop knob "Competitions" to reach these!).
It has occurred to us both that one of your pictures would make an excellent competition subject - perhaps with others of young players and a "spot the difference" angle to the question.
Would you be prepared to allow the use of one of the pictures for this purpose? Full acknowledgement and link would be provided with the answer - clearly it would defeat the object if this were done with the question!
It would give us great pleasure to make St Hilary's known to more people - it is a superb model - or series of models.
Perhaps you could let me know what you think - I will pass it on to Jenny, who lives in New Zealand. We live in England now, but spent some years in NZ. Computers have shrunk the distance.
Please say if you'd like more information before deciding.
Best wishes
David Bridgeman-Sutton.

I love your church. I'm currently making a room box chapel for my sister-in-law as a surprise birthday present. I especially love your vicar, he's got the most amazing face and the children are beautiful too. I hope my little room box will give as much pleasure to my sister-in-law as yours does to so many. I'll be back to look at your site in more detail when I have a bit more time. I'm sure your mum gets to enjoy your church from Heaven. Incidentally, my name is Hilary.

I visit this site now and again and it's always such a surprise to see all the
new photo's and texts. In dollshouseworld it's the most inspiring site and I let
many people know of the site so they all can enjoy your work. It gives me
inspiration to make new things and it's also a dream of me to make a church like
st. hillary's.But this church is the one and only in it's sort I think. Good
luck with it and I'll come again soon for another visit! kind regards, Bianca

This site is dedicated to Hilary Doreen Davies who departed
this life 26 November 2003 aged 71 after 23 years of chronic illness with
strokes, cancer and arthritis. St Hilary's Church is our tribute to a
brave lady who was mother to Sarah, Catherine, the late Rachel, the late
John and wife to the late Owen Williams Davies.
