A fond farewell in Newcastle.
A service of thanksgiving was held in St Anthony’s Church for the ministries of Brs David, Micael Cristoffer and Malcolm as they move on to new assignments. The three Brothers each chose a piece of Scripture or prose to reflect upon and then a favourite hymn. Canon Stephen Herbert (co-ordinator of MINE) officiated at the service along with Br Damian SSF. Afterwards the congregation – who consisted of parishioners and clergy of the MINE Parishes, members of the Third Order of the Society of St Francis and Brothers of the First Order – were treated to a lovely tea.
