Jennifer has now returned to the Team as a non-stipendiary Assistant Curate, having been  ordained as a Permanent Deacon by Bishop John in Gloucester Cathedral on 28th June.

 

She writes:

I'm 57 years old, with three adult children and two grandchildren. After a first career as a Children's Nurse, I spent over 12 years as a full-time mother and housewife before resuming my education and gaining a BA Honours at the College of St Paul and St Mary in Cheltenham. I've been an active member of All Saints' since 1982, where my calling to ordained ministry developed from a strong sense of commitment to the local community, as a result of my involvement in the Local Ministry Team and my work at the St Paul's Medical Centre.

 

                       

 

Having completing a year of full-time training at St Stephen's House Theological College in Oxford,  I've returned to the Team as a Permanent Deacon. I have a particular interest in lay education and in liturgy, having served on the Bishop of Gloucester's Liturgical Group and as a tutor on the Gloucester Diocesan Framework for Faith Course, until a return to employment in 1991 curtailed my free time. I'm also attached to the Hospital Chaplaincy in Cheltenham as a Volunteer.

 

A time-served chorister, I  am a member of the Jubilate Chamber Choir. where I'm fortunate in being able to continue singing a large repertoire of sacred and secular music at notable venues across the country and abroad.
