Curate Ordained Priest |
|
Sunday the 13th June was a very special day in the lives of Wigan Parish Church and St Georges Wigan. This was the day that our curate Julie was ordained priest in Liverpool Cathedral by Bishop James. A full coach plus a number of cars travelled the 25miles to Liverpool and we arrived at 9.20am for a 10.30am service so had plenty of time to find the best seats. A very moving service culminated in the ordination of seven deacons, the preacher was Canon Nicholas Anderson (chairman of the Diocesan House of Clergy) and the choir sang the communion setting Darke in F with anthems by Tallis, Pitoni and Sumsion. All this was rounded off with a lunch back in Wigan with a few speeches congratulations and presentations as you can see from the pictures below. |
