Rev. Graham Ransom, Circuit Superintendent, says:
Some of you will have met with the Minister suggested last Saturday (13 November.) Her name is Grace Cauldwell, who is currently stationed in the Nidd Valley Circuit, and living in Harrogate. Grace came with Ben, her husband and their two children, Edward and Emily and was given a whistle-stop tour of the circuit, and of the manse.
Following this visit, the
Circuit Invitation Committee met and agreed with the thoughts of the Stationing
and Matching Group, that Grace would make a valuable contribution to the growth
of the circuit.
I am delighted to say that Grace was invited to move to the
circuit, subject to the approval of the 2022 Methodist Conference, and Grace
agreed. She will, therefore, become the Superintendent Minister of the South
Lakes Circuit starting on 1st September 2022.
My thanks go out to all who helped make the visit
such a success.
In the meantime, we had a similar visit to the
Ryedale Circuit in North Yorkshire, which had the same outcome. We were invited
to go and minister over there, and were delighted to accept.
Please pray for Grace and her family.
Blessings
Graham
