SATURDAY 27th JUNE 9.30AM—12PM

BBC's "Riot Women" got people talking about menopause.  But are we talking about it in church? Yes we are!

We're holding a one-off gathering to give the opportunity to consider menopause within the context of our Christian faith, to reflect on scripture, share experiences and pray together.

If you are perimenopausal, menopausal, post-menopausal and would like to meet with other women in considering the impact of menopause, come along!

Mike is being OFFICIALLY licensed as the Vicar of St John’s. Bishop Adam and Archdeacon Sue will be with us and overseeing the ceremony.

The move from ‘Priest in Charge’ to ‘Vicar’ gives a signal of permanence to Mike’s role at St John’s - so if you’re free make sure to come down and celebrate with us! All welcome.
