Dear all
This evening at 6.30 pm, Bishop Emma Ineson, Acting Bishop of London and Bishop of Kensington, will be visiting the church tonight (Thursday 4th June) for our annual Service of Confirmation. Everyone is very warmly invited to attend, to greet our Bishop and to support our candidates, but if you are not able to come, please do hold in your prayers tonight (perhaps using the prayer below) our adult candidates Michelle, Patriota, Shahrzad, Oliver, Oliver, Fariba, Elisabeth and Stan, and our youth candidates, Orlando, Jacob, Lily, Tommy, Kza, Izzie and Gabriella, along with the fifteen other candidates from neighbouring churches who will be joining them to make this next step on the journey of faith. This coming Sunday we have our Family Eucharist at 9.30 am, when the children read, pray, sing and welcome. Please do join us for this joyful event as we enter into the Trinity season and learn more about Jesus’ life and ministry on earth. We are now VERY close to the Summer Garden Party on Saturday 13th June from 11.30 am to 2 pm in the Vicarage Garden. This is always a wonderful community event, when we come together to eat, drink, enjoy wonderful music and family-friendly entertainment, and we do hope you will be able to join us! If you are not able to be with us this year, but would like to contribute, we would be very grateful for any donations towards the amazing entertainments - the falconry or the jazz band. Also, if you are able to help on the day manning a stall or supervising entertainment, please email Leonora HERE. The more helpers we have the better! A reminder of the free evening talk this coming Tuesday 10th at 6.30pm in the church for Pride Month - please find more details HERE. I am delighted to report that Fr Christian and his family have now safely moved to London, and are enjoying a week of “resettlement leave” before he is licensed to the parish on Monday 15th. His first Sunday services will be on Sunday 21st June, and you are all warmly invited to his Welcome Evensong at 5.30 pm on Sunday 28th, when we shall be joined by members of his previous parish in the Diocese of Bristol. A prayer for Confirmation candidates: Defend, O Lord, these your servants with your heavenly grace, that they may continue yours for ever and daily increase in your Holy Spirit more and more until they come to your everlasting kingdom, Amen [Christian Initiation: Confirmation] With my love and prayers Mother Emma 4th June 2026 |
