Parish Church of All Saints' East Stratton. Services 10am (2nd Sunday) and festival services. Serving the people in the rural villages of East & West Stratton.
Just the most awesome privilege to be @WinCathedral for All Souls - presiding at the 12pm service of Holy Communion and deaconing at the Requiem Eucharist with @andytrenier The team there were brilliantly generous and the music @JoshStephensOrg was superb #humbling#thankful 🙏🙏
Must have been the only church in the country yesterday which wasn’t cool (someone accidentally turned the heating on). So, outside we went - brilliantly led by Campbell Dye (in the shade) @Robert_Rees28@stmarysmich@cjchilling
This next week in robes. A wedding on Saturday; Morning Prayer on Sunday; my ordination to the Priesthood next Saturday @WinCathedral and at @onmypinkbicycle’s ordination next Sunday morning. And, then my first celebration of Holy Communion @AllSaints_ES next Sunday eve. 🎉🎉🎉
And there we have it. One brilliant fete and dog show @AllSaints_ES in gloriously hot and sunny weather. People noted that I was often to be found ‘supervising’ the Pimm’s tent. Second event done, getting ready for 3 tomorrow @stmarysmich@CofEWinchester#jubilee#ruralministry
First (of six) events attended to celebrate The Queen’s Jubilee at St James Woodmancote. What better way to start the long weekend than with a Hog Roast in fellowship (need to work pretty hard in the gym tomorrow). #jubilee#ruralministry@stmarysmich@AllSaints_ES#wellfed
A beautifully busy day. One double baptism @AllSaints_ES which was full of joy and celebration followed by a lovely (long) lunch with @thebigmp & Lisanne 🥰🥰🥰. Then after tea and cake over to @stmarysmich for an evening service of HC with the best TI @Mike_Griffiths#greatday
