Our New Team Rector - Rev Guy Cole
Revd Guy Cole was licensed in the Priory on October 11th and we are very pleased to have him here with us in the Leominster Team. Fr. Guy is joining us from a long ministry in the Diocese of Oxford and we're looking forward to welcoming him over the coming weeks and supporting his ministry here in the coming years. There will be an introduction from him on here once he's had some time to unpack and settle in, but you can rest assured that we are in good hands and are blessed to have Fr Guy with us.
Shoebox Appeal
One hundred and twenty five shoeboxes were filled by members of the Priory family for the Teams4U shoebox appeal in late November. From across the UK the shoebox gifts are destined to travel to orphanages in Belarus, and to deprived communities in Bosnia, George, Romania and Moldova.
Brightly covered shoeboxes filled with stationery, toiletries, toys, warm hats and gloves and, of course, sweets spread joy to children living in difficult situations.
