We are delighted that Grant Fensome’s formal Collation as Vicar, Basildon with Aldworth and Ashampstead within Bradfield Deanery, will take place on Tuesday 2 February at 7pm.  Bishop Olivia will license him online via Zoom. 

 Grant does hope that you will be able to join him: it will be wonderful to welcome him formally to the Benefice  and rejoice in the start of his incumbency with us in the Benefice..

It would be very helpful if you could all mute your microphones when you join the Service.

 The Reading will be Luke 2.22-40. 

Grant’s induction by the Associate Archdeacon will take place at a later stage, in church and at a Service, when it is possible and safe to do so.  And of course we hope we will be able to have a big informal celebration and welcome for him, his wife Naomi and daughter Bethany in the summer, again when it is possible and safe to do so.
