Readers remembered

'Readers' are Church of England lay preachers and yesterday a whole bunch of them were licensed at Southwark Cathedral, including David McEvoy of St Alphege, Greenwich, who did a placement at St James during his training, and Jan Greaves, from my old parish of Holy Trinity, Redhill.

It was very special to see David and Jan licensed, and very moving too to hear in the prayers the name of our dear late lamented Trevor Knight (of St Peter's, St Helier), who this year went to be with the Lord.
