It was a privilege to officiate, for the last time, at the Act of Remembrance today, first in church and then at the Richmond memorial on the riverside. I will miss these special services that bring community together. #remembrance

Happy feast of St Michael and All Angels! Following this morning's service a group of angels (not the vicar!) did some serious litter picking around St Mary Magdalene Church. We are grateful that @LBRUT will collect what has been collected.
