Clare Connors’ Licence: A message to the church family at St Mary’s Monkseaton from Area Dean Tim Mayfield.
Dear St Mary’s,
I’ve picked up recently that there is in some quarters a degree of uncertainty around Clare’s licensing arrangements. I have met with Carol, Sue and Liz, and together we sought clarification from Bishop’s Chaplain Revd Pete Askew.
The clarification is this: Clare’s curacy at St Mary’s formally ended on March 22nd 2022. She remains licensed for all kinds of ministry, thanks to her role as an NHS chaplain. As such, Clare is licensed for all kinds of ministry at St Mary’s, but she does so by invitation.
I’m sure we would all be delighted to invite Clare to perform ‘all kinds of ministry’ at St Mary’s, while recognising that she also has a full-time role within the NHS. We are grateful for everything that Clare has given of herself at St Mary’s in the past, and grateful for all that she continues to give.
Please hold Clare in your prayers as she continues to settle to her new full-time post within the NHS. And you are all in our prayers as the appointments process continues for your new vicar.
Revd Tim Mayfield
Area Dean of Tynemouth
Reminder: Grounds redevelopment
All being well works will commence on Monday 20th June and will continue for some 16 weeks. Inevitably there will be significant disruption as the project develops and paths are re-laid. Parts of the car park (suitably protected) will be used as a compound. The church and hall will remain open but extra care will be required. Please be aware and follow the signage.
Reminder: Group for Older People
To attend our next lunch meeting on Friday 10th June at 12noon, please sign up on the sheet in the vestibule by Sunday 5th June. This is so that I can order food. Beryl Austoni.
