Curate Moving On Anne Stratton has been with the Bradgate Team as Curate for over 3 1/2 years. It has just been announced that she has been appointed Vicar of St Peters Belper in Derbyshire. We offer her our congratulations. Anne's last service in the Parish will be on Palm Sunday at a joint Parish service in Ratby Church at 10am. There will be an opportunity to say goodbye to her at the end of this service. The date for her licensing in Belper is Thursday 22nd April at 7.30pm. If anyone would liek to go along to support her please can they sign the lists in Church so that transport can be shared and Belper have some idea of how much cake is needed!
Edging out! Over the last year, you will all have heard or read something of our Mission Partnership, Forest Edge. The map here shows you the geography of the Partnership. The inauguration of the Forest Edge Partnership, took place on Sunday 26th April, 2009. It was an opportunity to mark our beginning formally, to have a party and get to know each other a little better. We decided to go to the southern corner of our Partnership, to the Caterpillar complex. In our Partnership agreement, it is stated that ‘we are committed towards local mission as an ecumenical endeavour.’ In other words, we want to work together with other churches in our villages wherever we can, and we invited representatives from all churches in the area to join us for the inauguration. Our Archdeacon, the Venerable Paul Hackwood, was also with us for the formal part of the evening. Revd. Louise Corke
