Thank you all of you who have been praying.

Many in our church locally, including friends now scattered in various nations, have known about our efforts to enlarge our ministry team to cope with the rapid growth in our church. We have talked with a few people over the past two years but each time it ended up without an appointment.

I am delighted to announce that Matthew Parkins will be joining us from the beginning of June. Matthew and his wife Joanne have worked in Sheffield at St Thomas’s, then more recently in a church in Australia. They arrive with their daughter Scarlett.

Matthew has his own blog (click here) where you can see a video of Scarlett dancing.

House-hunting will be occupying them over the next few weeks, so you if you know of anywhere nice to rent let us know. Probably not the one advertised on my blog!

Again, thank you to all who have been praying about this appointment. I am so relieved. I think they will fit very well.
