A huge thank you to all who were involved in making my installation service on Sunday, as your new Team Rector, so special and memorable. I know much went on behind the scenes, especially all involved with the music, the service itself and the buffet in any way! Thank you too for all your prayers, cards, gifts and words of support and encouragement. I am very much looking forward to the future, continuing to minister alongside you all as your Rector with such a gifted Ministry Team alongside me too. Rev'd Cath Leighton
