Change of Parish
Priest at St. Mary's
Dave Stickland is coming to
the end of his time as our Parish Priest in Buriton.
He has been here for almost five years and has made a
deep impression on the parish. He and Carol will
be sorely missed when they retire to: 14
Captains Row, King James Quay, Old Portsmouth. PO1
2TT (tel.: 023 9234 5342).
Our
next Parish Priest will be Revd. Judith Bee, shown here
with her husband, David. She will be licensed to the
Group Ministry on 8th September. David will be a
Reader so we will get two for the price of one!
They will both be most welcome.
When
asked for a few words about herself, she wrote: "I
was trained at STETS (Southern and Educational Training
Scheme), ordained at Petertide 2006 and have been
serving as a non-stipendiary assistant curate in
Hambledon since then. We have lived in this area for
over 30 years. I am married to David, a local vet, and
we have 3 grown up children, Anna, Rich and Rachael, one
son-in-law, Chris, one grandaughter, Ellie, and one
elderly Jack Russell cross terrier called Cini - short
for Puccini! (you probably don't want to know about
that!)". Ed.: I'm sure we do! |
