This church in Rayleigh was not dedicated to one of the many people who died as martyrs (witnesses of faith) for their Christian beliefs, or who we venerate as blessed or saints because of their exemplary way of life. Rather, this parish has chosen God himself - in the "Holy Trinity" - as its patron saint. According to Christian teaching, we believe in ONE God who exists in THREE persons - God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and the Holy Spirit. The following description can be found on the EKD (Evangelical Church of Germany) website: "The word tries to express the seemingly impossible, namely that God is three and one at the same time. To understand this, it helps to consider how people have experienced God throughout history: as a creator who loves his world and people like a father loves his children. As a God who became human himself in Jesus Christ, his son, and shared human life. And finally as God who is still present and alive among people in the Holy Spirit.”

Osea Island is a relatively unknown Essex retreat in the Blackwater Estuary with private beaches, no shops or restaurants and mainly self catering accommodation.

Right at the end of the Chelmer & Blackwater Navigation sits Heybridge Basin. Home of the sea lock which releases the canal out to sea. The basin meant that sea vessels could enter the canal and travel all the way up to Chelmsford. There are two pubs here, the Jolly Sailor and the Old Ship, plus the Lock Tea Room if you are in need of a pitstop.

A tidal causeway known as The Stumble connects Osea Island with the mainland. Sadly the island isn't open to the public but you can visit by staying in the island's hotel. It was used in the 2012 film 'The Woman in Black' as the 'Nine Lives Causeway'. It is popular with musicians looking for a remote recording venue. Rhianna is said to have recorded an album there in 2019.
