Well,as you can see from the pictures, I was ordained as a deacon yesterday in St Luke's Church, Battersea. That's me,second from the left, and for the avoidance of doubt that's also me with A and D in the picture below. It was a wonderful service and although it seemed unimaginable to be there after so many years, it would have been equally unimaginable to be anywhere else. Thank you to everyonewho has supported me and prayed for me, and especially to the people who cameto the service,arranged the lunch, and made the whole of yesterday such a joy.
As anyone reading this can see,I haven't posted for ages and as I take on more or less full-time work in the parish alongside my Parole Board responsibilities I've decided that, for the time being at least, I need to stop even trying to blog. I'll keep following other people's blogs and commenting but there will be nothing new here for the foreseeable future (not much change there then!). So, my best wishes and again my thanksto everyone whohas been reading this since I set it up more than two years ago.I've made some good friends, especially Kathryn, and I know we will still keep in touch, but I don't expect to be posting here again.
Signing off now.
Love, Mary.
