Baptism, First Communion & Confirmation: Sunday 16th July, 9.30am
🕊️ This Sunday’s 9.30am service will be an extra-special one, as some of our young people take important steps in their journey of faith.
Aisosa, Etiosa, Faith and Gloria will be both baptised and confirmed, and Isaac will be taking his First Communion. We are so lucky to have our very own ‘resident’ bishop in Redbourn, Bishop Robin Smith, who will conduct all of these special sacraments.
Please join us for this extra-special service, (followed by extra-special refreshments!) to show these youngsters how much they are valued and supported by the whole St Mary’s community.
🕯️ If you are interested in being baptised or confirmed, why not come along to see what happens – or contact our Churchwardens on churchwardens@stmarysredbourn.org for more information.
The Installation of Revd Rachel Wakefield: Monday 4th September, 7.30pm
The Institution, Licensing, Induction and Installation of Revd Rachel Wakefield promises to be a memorable occasion, and not just for its impressive or rambling (depending on your point of view) title!
On Monday 4th September at 7.30pm, Rachel will be formally welcomed to Redbourn as Vicar, in a service which has ancient roots and much symbolism. Come and witness the moment when Rachel will be presented with the church keys, when she tolls the church bell, when she will be presented with a bible, bread and wine.
This is an occasion for the whole community to come together and usher in a new beginning for our church and parish.
Leaders from the local community will also be taking part, and there will be plenty of opportunity for all to join in, whether singing, praying, or simply by our presence giving Rachel a warm Redbourn welcome.
The church may be packed full, with people from both Redbourn and further afield, so please plan to arrive early, by 7.15pm at the latest. We aim to get everyone in somehow!
