A Space to Breathe

Rev Caroline's Ordination

We welcomed Rev Caroline Castle following her ordination at Coventry Cathedral on 28^th June. It was a moving service, with the ordinands making their vows and declarations, before Bishop Sophie ordained and prayed for them. A few folk from our family of churches were able to attend and add their support.

We are looking forward to introducing Caroline around the minister in the coming months.
~ Rev'd Katie
