The hunt is on…
The Church Council met with the Bishop, the Archdeacon, the Patron from Christchurch and the Deanery Lay Chair on Thursday to discuss the launch of our search for a new priest. Among several encouraging things said, there were also helpful criticisms of the parish brochure (copies are in the churches – look there to see the current version).
The timetable was spelled out: the earliest we could expect to be arranging a welcome will be sometime in the New Year – but at least we are on the road!
