Friday 28th June was Viv Buckle’s final service with us and the occasion typified all that Viv has been within the community of St Christopher’s. Her particular gift has been with the children of the Cathedral both in Friday Club and in Family Services and so it seemed especially fitting that those children who wanted, and most did, were part of the prayer of commissioning at the end of the service. She has also been a central part of the Monday homegroup. We are grateful for the time that Viv has been among us and we wish her joy in her return to the UK and a fruitful ministry in Woodbridge, Suffolk where she and Ian will make her home. |
