Coffee with the Vicar

Just spent a most enjoyable hour with the Rev'd Will Pearson-Gee, on a wide ranging conversation from the earthly to the spiritual and back again. He very kindly bought me coffee in Esquires.

The main aim of our meeting was to discuss the possibility of organising a Civic Service for the Town and local churches, temples and faith groups. No date is fixed yet but it will probably be sometime in the first part of next year.

But what is a 'Civic Service'? Here is one example from Aylesbury recently: link here. And here are some guidelines prepared by the Diocese of Southwark. So over the next few weeks and months, Will and I will be working together to create a Service to celebrate the Town.

... watch this space!

Meanwhile I followed Will up to the Church and just had the most sumptuous lunch of lentil soup and hearty bread. It is free every Tuesday. I recommend you pop along! Great company too!
