Yesterday was sunny, warm and bright for all attending the Ordination Service at Southwell Minster for the eleven Ordinands. The Minster was full of friends and families and the service was very uplifting. Claire, as usual was beaming her wonderful smile and was enjoying the day, even if she was very tired after all the preparations.
We were treated to some joyful singing in celebration after the service ended but unfortunately were unable to see those performing.
Bishop George Cassidy, seen here with Revd Claire Goode, participated in what must have been one of his last Ordinations as he is due to retire imminently. We all wish him well.
This is most of the group who attended the service to support Claire, which included members from the S. Notts. Cluster churches, the majority of whom travelled by bus to Southwell.
St Lawrence's Church was also full to bursting this morning to attend Claire's first service of Holy Communion.
