Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has been with me on my journey to priesthood. The service is now online: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVoXzwm8eXQ or search ‘Priest Ordinations 2023 Elstow Abbey’ in the Youtube search bar. Thank you for all the encouragement, kind words, cards, and very generous gifts. I have felt truly held and cared for over this time. Thank you also for those that were able to make the ‘Pete’s Priesting Pimms Party’ as Pam called it, on Sunday. It was truly lovely to be able to have so many people come around and share with us. For those that missed it, fear not, we are planning to have something again over the summer. Tim Chester says that “In Luke’s Gospel Jesus is either going to a meal, at a meal, or coming from a meal.” So, let us be encouraged as the summer continues to think about how we can all offer hospitality to both those we know and to those we do not.
Rev’d Pete Farquhar
