SOLEMN EUCHARIST AND CONFIRMATION 2013 - 7.00PM THIS THURSDAY 23RD MAY 2013
We welcome our Bishop Paul Williams to confirm candidates, young and old, into the Eucharistic fellowship of Christ’s church.
This is NOT a private service for the candidates’ families and friends:
it is one of the most important services in our church year, involving all our resources of inspiring worship, including wonderful music, and the Wardens and clergy consider that ALL committed members of St Mary Abbots should be there, to welcome the Bishop and support those joining our Eucharistic fellowship.
The Service will be followed by a wine-and-canapes reception to which all are invited – and in true St Mary Abbots style we invite everyone to offer a platter or two of canapes or finger food. All offers of help to alison.steel57@yahoo.co.uk

St Mary Abbots plans for renewal
Father Gillean writes: We love, and our very proud of, our historic and magnificent church – but if we look at it honestly it is in many respects really rather shabby and in need of renovation. Before I came I was told that there was the most urgent need for a reasonable provision of lavatories and a respectable kitchen: now, only ten years on, we can unveil the masterplan that the Fabric Committee has been working on over a long period with our architect. It incorporates many elements suggested in a couple of open church meetings and in discussion by the Church Council, and now has the general approval of the Church Council and the Diocesan Committee – but is of course a very long way off being put into commission.
