Grace and Peace
Date: 2026-03-22
Grace and peace, from God our Father and His Son Jesus the Christ.
May your hearts be set on fire with love for God and your neighbour and the world, as you journey through this Lent and beyond.
I need to inform the Parish that we no longer have a verger living on the Property, and therefore we will need to plan our activities more carefully to accommodate opening up and locking up. Please be proactive - especially at the gate and if there are access problems let me know. Our staff are still available and hard at work during the week, but please be aware especially afterhours periods.
Our New Council is already hard at work and we will have our first meeting on the 24th. Executive has met and we are implementing the ministry plan coming off Vestry to ensure growth of the Church and inclusive ministry, for all by all.
We have a Confirmation Service coming up on the 14th of June and encourage families to consider their children 16 years and older to join us at 18h00 on Wednesday nights for confirmation preparation.
We also invite people who are not baptised or who have children who are not baptised to contact the office to arrange Baptism.
May our God continue to inspire us to ministry and I ask you to respond to the opportunities for involvement as advertised in the Pew Bulletin.
Yours in the service of Christ.
