The latest round of advertising and closing date for a new rector for the Long Barrow Benefice has come and gone with no one applying. The churches in the benefice have now been without an incumbent for 18 months. We should like to say a big thank you to all the retired ministers, licensed lay ministers, the lay worship leaders and church wardens and visits by Bishop Stephen, Bishop Karen and our arch deacon Penny for ensuring that most services have happen with out hitch over this period. I would like also to take the opportunity to wish the team a very merry Christmas and happy New Year.
PewsNews is the Benefice's weekly newsletter listing the services and activities across our three churches. It is available on the Benefice website by clicking here. If you are interested there is also an archive of our Pews News which will give you an idea of what happens within our Benefice. Well worth a read.
