A community in Christ seeking and sharing transforming grace, reconciling love and compassionate hope
As you may have noticed, Fr Neil has recently discovered Twitter. He enjoys its format and, in the middle of writing his sermon, will often tweet.

Please continue to pray for Neil Taylor as he prepares to be ordained deacon on Saturday at Warwick Street.
