We are excited to announce that Bethany Austin will be joining the St Bartholomew's family on the summer as Curate*. Bethany will be moving from Liverpool, where she currently works as a verger at Liverpool Anglican Cathedral, and will be ordained Deacon at the end of June.Look out for an article from Bethany in the April edition of Sydenham Life.*A Curate is a sort of apprentice Vicar - they spend around 3 years working alongside an experienced priest as part of their training.
