Margaret described the day as "A Spirit-filled day of love, joy, blessing and celebration at the beginning of this amazing journey of serving the Lord."

Margaret, we at St Mary's and St Peter's are glad to play a part in this next stage in your journey.

Please continue to pray for all the newly ordained deacons, that they may be blessed in their ministry and be a blessing to all those they meet and serve. Posting on Twitter, Bishop Mark described the services as "wonderfully encouraging."
