Sunday

2 Samuel 24:24

And the king said unto Araunah,
Nay; but I will surely buy it of thee at a price:
neither will I offer burnt offerings
unto the LORD my God
of that which doth cost me nothing.


Today Thomas celebrated his last service as Priest-in-Charge of the Parish of St. Andrew's, Thornhaugh and St Mary's, Wansford.

The church was packed to overflowing with friends who had come to give thanks for his stewardship over the past ten years. MrM was there and has told me all about it.

I wish I could have been with them too but I know that Thomas and Audrey were surrounded with love on this very special day.

  4. From Sunday's Lectionary: Psalm 105:3

    Glory in his holy Name; *
    let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.

    Sounds like there was a lot of rejoicing for the gift of Thomas' ministry.
