Regrettably & regretfully I shall be retiring on 30th November this year. After that I shall have no responsibilities or rights with regard to the running of the ecclesiastical parish. Please refer any queries after 30th November to churchwardens.
Churchwarden initial contact details: Cuxton Joyce
Haselden 01634 724634, Halling Chris Beaney 01634 241599
After 30th November, my address will be 5, May Street, Cuxton, Rochester, Kent, ME2 1LR, telephone 01634 713294 My email address will be unchanged. I shall keep my webpage http://www.cuxtonandhalling.org.uk because there is a lot of potentially useful archival material – church guides, sermons, bible notes and parish magazines dating back to 2005. There will not, however, be current parish notices on it after the end of this year. Please go to A Church Near You and type in your postcode for up to date information regarding the Parish of Cuxton & Halling.
My last day will be marked (God Willing) with a service of Holy Communion at 11.00 am at St Michael’s on that day. There will then be refreshments served in the church hall. Everybody is welcome & I hope to see as many of you as possible. I am very grateful to God for the time I have been Rector of Cuxton and Halling and for all the friendship, support & encouragement I have received.
It’s only fair that my valedictory service will be at Cuxton as my inaugural service (2nd January 1987) was at Halling. My last sung service at Halling, therefore will be 11.00 on 24th November. My last ever service at St John’s will be the said Holy Communion at 9.30 am on Thursday 28th November. I’m the longest ever serving vicar at Halling & the fourth longest rector at Cuxton.
In addition to the service and celebration on 30th November, there will be a buffet in the White Hart at Cuxton from 12.00 noon on Friday 29th November with an open invitation to everyone who would like to wish me well as I transition to a next phase of my life here on earth.
