On the move

Submitted by James on Sun, 02/11/2008 - 14:55

Now everything is formally announced, I can post this on here.

We're delighted to announce that, subject to the usual Diocesan procedures, we will be moving to the village of Kemsing in Kent sometime next year. I'll be taking up the post of Priest in Charge of two churches: St Mary's Kemsing and St Mary's Woodlands in the Diocese of Rochester.

Anyone who has been involved with Oak Hall Expeditions will know where those parishes are - Otford Manor is in the benefice. For those who have not had the good fortune to discover Oak Hall, Kemsing is a village on the edge of Sevenoaks and the edge of the Wield, and the ecclesiastical parish of Woodlands is a scattered rural area adjacent to Kemsing on the North Downs.

More in due course, no doubt.

Fantastic

I'm slightly gutted that you'll be leaving Lichfield, our loss is Rochester's gain, and am thankful to God that we were able to spend some quality time together on CME chewing things over and praying for each other. Go well.
