There is one week left to apply for the post of Priest-in-Charge. This will be an exciting new role to bring refreshed leadership to the Island’s churches.

Closing date is this Sunday, if you do know of any vicars looking for a new opportunity then please share this with them!

** UPDATE: The picture has been found**

We are beyond sad to announce that our historic Royal Coat of Arms of King George III has been stolen.

This isn’t just an old picture. Its a survivor from 1760-1820 that has stood through wars, overlooked baptisms, marriages, funerals, celebrations, community life, and watched generations of people. Its part of our story, of everyone's story who has ever visited Bobbing Church. To lose it like this is devastating.

Another church went through this last year. Their community shared the post so widely that the items were recovered.

We're hoping for the same. Please share this and help us bring it home.

*Police have been contacted, but we prayerfully hope this can be returned this way too*

It is with great sadness to announce the passing of Fr Colin Johnson. ❤️

Fr Colin was a former Honary Assistant Priest within the Parish. He was adored by the congregation, and was vital in keeping the Parish worshiping during our last Interregnum.

Fr Colin’s funeral will take place at St Peter & St Paul Borden on 11 November at 11:00am.

May he rest in peace and rise in glory.
