Rev’d Gary and Maggie celebrate 19 years of Ministry at St James as we all say farewell and good luck on Sunday 4th May 2014 at the Church Hall
Since then we have received this thank you message
We would like to thank everyone for their gifts, cards, kind and encouraging words and prayers over the last few weeks. My final Sunday in Burnopfield at St James’ was wonderful and it was good to be able to share it with so many people at the Communion services and the farewell service and tea. You will be glad to know that I have now spent my generous farewell gift on a new guitar and amplifier. It’s been really good to look back through all the cards that we have received. Almost all the boxes have now been unpacked.
God bless, Gary and Maggie.’
