On Sunday 28th July Dean Graham welcomed Revd Mariusz Wojciechowski as a new member of the clergy team at St John's. His wife Anna was in the congregation and also received a welcome. The congregation of St John's looks forward to getting to know them both in the coming months. As usual there was 'cake' in the threshold after the service to complete the welcome. There are more photos in the posts section of the website.
