Ordinations in June 2009
Deacon JenniferOn Sunday 28th June Jennifer Swinbank was amongst those who were ordained deacon in Gloucester Cathedral. Many of you will already know Jennifer, who has been a member of All Saints’ for a number of years. She has spent the last year at St Stephen’s House Theological College in Oxford as part of her training for ordained ministry and was ordained to serve in the North Cheltenham Team. This will be on a non-stipendiary (unpaid) basis and Jennifer will be continuing her full-time work in the National Health Service. Although she will mainly be ministering at All Saints’ she will also be involved in Team-wide services and other events and so will have the opportunity to meet many of you.

On Saturday 6th June at 4.30pm in
Gloucester Cathedral Fr David Gardiner was ordained priest to serve in the North
Cheltenham Team Ministry. On 7th June (Trinity Sunday)
Fr David presided at the Eucharist for the first time. This is a
very significant occasion for a new priest and one which we all wanted to share
in. As this was a Team-wide celebration the main Sung Eucharist for the
whole Team was at 11am in St Nicolas’. This was followed by lunch.
