And she's off!
Our Youth and Children's Worker, Sian Gasson, is leaving us to begin training for ordination this September.
Sian will be sorely missed by many of us but we are delighted that she will be able to pursue her ministry in this new direction.
Please pray for Sian and her family as they prepare to move house, and for Sian in particular as she prepares to embark on her training programme.
We would like to give Sian the send-off she deserves. We will be having a shared lunch and party on Sunday 5th September after the 10.30am service in Emmanuel. More info here.
We would also like to present Sian with a gift. Please be as generous as you can in recognition of all that she has given to us. Cheques can be made payable to “St James and Emmanuel PCC” and can be left on the collection plate or delivered to the Parish Office.
Please mark the envelope clearly with the words “Sian’s Leaving Gift” or we will not be able to assign it to her. We don’t have long to make the collection and buy the gifts.
