Visit by prospective new parish priest – 25th September

September 19, 2023 2:19 pm by

The wait is over!  It is very exciting: on Monday 25th September, our prospective new priest, Graham, will tour the Parish and meet as many people as possible.  In an ideal world, a few from each village would meet up in their own church – but, as we all know, we are one Parish(!), so do feel free to meet him wherever suits you best.

If you can come for lunch, do please let Emma (parishoffice@upperstour.co.uk) know (acceptances only!).  In addition, if you might be able to bring a plate of something (eg sandwiches), please let Carol Affleck (cam@caffleck.com) know so that we have an idea of both numbers and supplies!

Hopefully, everything will run more or less to plan but in an ideal world the programme is as follows:

9.45am     Meet at St Peter’s Church, Stourton
Morning Worship followed by coffee
All welcome

10.30am    Whitesheet School, Zeals
(Tamsin Edmed, Charles Vizor)

11.15am      St George’s School, Bourton
(Jill Farndale, Caroline Worthington)

12.00pm    St George’s Church, Bourton
(Harry Allen, Tony Moorby)

12.45-1pm  Lunch at Zeals Village Hall
All Welcome (please let Emma know if you will be coming)

2.00pm      Rectory and Parish Administrator, Zeals
(Emma Chandarana)

2.30pm        St Mary’s Church, Kilmington
(Chris Reeves, Celia Cotton)

3.00pm     All Saints, Maiden Bradley
(Celia Blay)

3.30pm      St Martin’s Church, Zeals
Brief Prayers
All Welcome

It would be really nice if as many people as possible could meet Graham!  Looking forward to seeing you all

Best
Crin
