Mary, My thoughts are with you at this time - My mother Joan Baker supported Joyce in the publishing of her book many years ago - 'Hasten Slowly' and I have re-read the foreword by my mother and dipped into Joyce's writing again too. It was good to meet Joyce and yourself after many years when you attended my mother's funeral 2 years ago. I hope that the time with family and friends now support you in remembering Joyce. I shall be with you in spirit on the 3rd August, Love Anne Ferrett

Joyce Bennett, a remarkable missionary, teacher, educator, legislator and above all a pastor and priest won the love and respect of Hong Kong people and the Anglican Church family. Her 34 years devoted to Hong Kong nurtured many young lives and mentored many clergy in their vocation. When she was appointed member of the legislative council, her first speech was fighting for the delay of the Holy Trinity Church Secondary School project by the Education Department in switching sites and location, neglecting and trespassing the good will of co-operation of the voluntary bodies. She caused many media attention and thus force the Education Director to speed up work and apologize to the School board when the School was finally opened in 1978. I was the Rector of Holy Trinity Parish and was greatly supported by Joyce. Many people and students will always remember her courage and sense of justice to fight for education and the disadvantaged people.

In loving memory of Joyce Bennett who is always in our thoughts and prayers. We thank God for her ministry in HK, which built up a lot of people with her love and life. Andrew,Sarah and Gabriel
