A meeting of Diocesan Readers was held in the Church of the Holy Spirit, Mossley, on Monday June 24.
Seventeen Readers from across the diocese met with the Bishop of Connor, the Rt Rev George Davison, and the Rev Peter Jones, Warden of Readers.
The evening began with a Service of the Word which was based on the theme ‘Knowing Jesus and Making Jesus Known.’ After the service, everyone enjoyed a light supper in Mossley Parish Centre and this was good opportunity for Readers to catch up with one another.
Bishop George expressed his sincere thanks to all the Diocesan Readers for their ministry throughout the diocese and he highlighted the important role that Readers have in the ongoing mission and ministry of the Church.
The Warden of Readers spoke about the current training course for Diocesan Readers and then interviewed Keith Gardiner and William McCandless, two recently commissioned Diocesan Readers, about their journey to Diocesan Readership and their experience of the training course.
Peter said: “It was really encouraging to be able to gather together and we look forward to more meetings following the summer.”
More details of these will be released in late August.
