Baptism and Confirmation.
The Bishop has confirmed a date to return to St. Mark’s Church to Baptise and Confirm Rebecca, Sarah, Cate and James. Due to a Norovirus infection they were unable to come to the Bishop’s previous visit in August. You’ll have to make an early recovery from all the New Year’s celebrations and come to church because it’s on the 2nd January.
