Introduction from Rev’d Barbara Dennis

manager — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 14:22:10 +0000

Here is a bit about myself as requested, I’m not very good at writing about

myself I’m afraid but here we go.

Ordained 1997. Present post as Associate Priest at St Edward’s

The Confessor Romford and

Town Centre Chaplain and Met Police Chaplain and Assistant Area Dean.

I have 2 lovely Grown Up Sons and a lovely Daughter in Law.

I am engaged to be married to a serving Met Police Officer.

Likes Horse Riding, Walking, Reading, having Meals with Friends.

Dislikes Celery!

In my previous working life I was a Youth Worker in Havering working with

16-25 year olds who were unemployed.

I am very much looking forward to working with you all in the Upper Colne

Parishes and with the surrounding communities.

It will be a very different context to the one I am in now, but I feel that I will be

able to transfer a lot of my skills to the new job. I served my curacy with the

Reverend Stephen Waine (Bishop John Waine’s son), so I have been taught

well. I have also been comprehensive school chaplain and in my capacity as

a priest worked with primary school children in Romford. I am very much a ‘roll

up your sleeves’ and muck in person and I love working with and alongside

people.

I feel very blessed by God to have been given the job as Priest in Charge and

look forward to joining you all in March.

Yours in Christ Reverend Barbara Dennis.

Our ‘Knit and Natter’ Group in Great Yeldham continues to thrive. Our primary goal has always been to socialise, however, we do knit for Operation Christmas’s ‘Childs Annual Shoebox Appeal’ We are always grateful for offers of wool and patterns for hats, mitts, scarves, childrens’ bags and dolls clothes.

If you are interested in joining our group or have any of the above to offer, please call Chris Persinger on 237522.

Prayer Page

It has been suggested that a prayer page be opened. This will be for anyone wishing to include anyone in our prayers at any service. You may have worries and fears you would like others to join in to pray for.

If you would like any prayers to be included, please contact me and I will ensure this is passed on to the leader of the service and if you like, include on this site.
