Confirmation Service 2019
St Cuthberts Confirmation Service May 2019
It was a joy to have 26 people come for Confirmation this year, 20 children and 6 adults. On May 19th 2019 The Right Reverend Bishop Geoff Pearson, was invited to confirm and anoint these fantastic people, into the faith of the Church of England. All the children had attended a 10 week course within Emmaus School run by Rev Laura with help from Mrs June Simm Chair of Governors. The adults had also attended courses with Rev Laura to help them continue with their discipleship long after the service had finished.
Bishop Geoff spoke about the love of God for all and how God is accessible even in the difficult times. He also spoke about 'being in the moment' enjoying moments for what they are. God given moments that often we stifle some of the joy, out of as we try to capture the moment on our phones and devices. All our adult candidates have also signed up to our diocese Rule of Life to aid them in their lifelong journey of faith. The service concluded with an amazing spread provided by the community within the church and a day of memories, that will last a life time. Thank you to all who helped with the food and to all of St Cuthberts Church for being an amazing community.
