REPORT ON DEANERY CONFERENCE AND FESTIVAL 22-25 MAY 2015
Once more members of the Deanery gathered at High Leigh, greeting familiar faces and learning to know new ones. Our theme was The Beauty of Holiness. It was appropriate then that at the centre of our programme were Saturday's Vigil and the Liturgy on Sunday. This year we had the joy of the presence of not only Archbishop Job but also Bishop John, who together concelebrated with 14 priests, a protodeacon and three deacons. During the Liturgy the Archbishop ordained two candidates, firstly as acolytes then as Readers; one then went on to be ordained Subdeacon.
