Submitted by The Islander (Clive & Jenny Duncan) 21.08.2008 (Article Archived on 04.09.2008)

It is just two weeks away when we will have our Bishop back with us for approximately two weeks in September.

As usual he will be staying in the Vicarage and anyone who would like to meet him is most welcome.

Instead of the usual Family Service for the first Sunday in September, Bishop John will celebrate Mass and confirmation at 10.30 am.  We trust that you will be able to attend this service and support the two candidates and their parents with your prayers

On Sunday 14 September Bishop John will be preaching at the Battle of Britain service.  Again you are all welcome.

Have a pleasant and enjoyable week.

Canon Clive
