Licensing of our new parish priest
Our new priest, the Reverend Deborah Snowball, was licensed by the Bishop of Hertford, the Right Reverend Christopher Foster on Monday 8th October in a service of joy, love and optimism.
The church was packed with members of our own congregation, members of the congregation of Great St Mary, Sawbridgeworth (Deborah's previous parish) and many friends.
Sadly, one of the Gang of Four (aka Churchwarden John Hill) was unable to be there as he was on holiday but we promised to get the photos on the Internet as soon as possible so that he could view them from Assisi. John - you missed a great evening and we really missed you.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to the service (especially the Catering Team) and for making this evening so special.
Thanks also to the workmen who finished painting just as we started to set up that evening!
