Some news from Lindsay
After very nearly 14 years serving on the clergy team here at St James’s, the time has finally come for me to move on. Many will know that during my time in London, theatre chaplaincy has become a real passion of mine. Beginning in October, as a 3-year pilot project with London Diocese, I will be pursuing theatre chaplaincy full-time. My final Sunday at St James’s will be mid-September – date to be confirmed. For most of the last 14 years, I’ve found it very hard to imagine leaving St James’s, or what on earth you go on to do after being on the clergy team here, so amidst the inevitable sadness of leaving, I feel extremely blessed and a real surge of joy at being called to - and given - such an exciting new opportunity.
I’m also excited and delighted that St James's can look forward – in time – to welcoming a new, enthusiastic and energetic Associate Rector to do great things. The successful candidate will be one of the luckiest priests in the Church of England!
UPDATE: Lindsay's last St James's Sunday will be 15 September. Please join us, after the 11am service, for a party to thank her for her enormous contribution to the life of St James’s.
UPDATE 2: If you wish to make a contribution to a leaving gift please (1) give it to any of the clergy, church wardens, vergers or to David, Parish Secretary, (2) send it via your bank to the parish bank account quoting as reference LINDSAY: Account Name: St James's Church Piccadilly PCC, Sort Code: 08-02-28, Account Number: 65645484, or (3) send a cheque to the Parish Office, St James's, 197 Piccadilly, London W1J 9LL. We know that many will wish to contribute in thankfulness for Lindsay's work at St James's over nearly 14 years.
