Packet Boat Marina, Grand Union Canal
Today was a trip in to St Columba’s Church, Pont Street in Knightsbridge
where I am an Elder. Today was a special
service as it was the service for a new Associate Minister (Reverend Andrea
Price) as our last one (Reverend Alistair Cumming) had gone to be Secretary to
the Presbytery of England. Andrea has
come down from the Orkneys so it is going to be a major change for her and her
family. There were a lot of ministers as
we had the Moderator (Reverend James Dowswell), representatives of the
Presbytery of England, the next Chaplain General to the Forces, and the
Minister of Dunkeld Cathedral (Reverend Fraser Penny) all present. Fraser ‘preached in’ Andrea as the
introduction to the Congregation. There
is always a Sunday Lunch after the service and I ended up sitting at the same
table as the Secretary of State for Scotland.
Afterwards it was a journey back to Uxbridge in sunshine.
