Comings and Goings at Holy Cross

July 2009

A new vicar has been found for Holy Cross! We look forward to welcoming Rev’d David Pearson and his wife in December when they join us from Barking. The date for the licensing has been set for Monday 21st December at 8.00pm, just in time for Christmas!

 

 

However, we also bring the sad news that our curate David Pickering is moving on to pastures new, having completed his curacy. David, wife Pip and son Jonny will be moving to Oxfordshire, where David will be priest-in-charge of the villages of Kingston Bagpuize, Fyfield and Tubney. Their last Sunday with us at Holy Cross is 19th July.

 

 

David reflects on his curacy at Holy Cross:

 

‘Can I say how encouraging it has been to be at

Holy Cross these past three years. It has been

very exciting to see how God has been at work,

growing his church here and inspiring people to

follow him. Holy Cross is full of life and God is

doing new things in his church here, and we will

be praying that continues.’

 

 

We wish David, Pip and Jonny well for their future

in Oxfordshire. We will miss them very much.

David, Pip and Jonny Pickering
