Thank you!
This week marks the end of one chapter and the beginning of a new one; the St Oswald's graft team are commissioned on Sunday, followed by my licensing as Priest-in-charge on Monday.
The famous African proverb states that 'it takes a whole village to raise a child.' To translate the phrase to my own experience, 'it takes a whole church to raise a curate.' Your friendship, encouragement, prayers, example, and faithfulness have helped shape my life and ministry: thank you!
We move a mile away, grateful for all God has taught us, thankful for how he has called a graft team to join us, and excited at all God will do in and through his church for his glory. Thank you for your prayers for us all, and for your partnership in Christ.
With our thanks and prayers,
Simon (and Rebecca, Rosanna, and Jacob!)
