Rev Shirley Cowan became our new vicar at a service of institution and induction last Sunday (3 April 2016) by Bishop Richard and Archdeacon Roger in a packed Holy Trinity

Following on from the service last week, St Ann's Church welcomed our new vicar Rev Shirley Cowan this morning (10 April).for her first service at St Ann's.
The service started with informal welcomes to Shirley and her husband Dave. The Church then prayed for her ministry.
Joyce led the first part of the service with Shirley preaching from John's Gospel and presiding at Communion.
After the service we all had a bring and share lunch at Church and Shirley and Dave cut a cake marking their first service with us.
It was a morning of joy for all involved. We wish Shirley every blessing in her ministry here.
