NEWS: The Revd Canon Richard Hancock will be the new Rector of Stalbridge. His licensing will be at 7pm on 29 June in St Mary’s Stalbridge. It would be good to welcome him with a full church! It would also be good for as many as possible to travel to St Barnabas on 29 May for the joint service, to meet with fellow Christians from other parishes in the benefice. Please let a churchwarden know if you would like a lift.
