Yesterday was the/my Induction Service, which was both great fun and very meaningful.

We made solemn promises - and we also made a model of a church out of building blocks!

We listened to a wonderful sermon - and we shared a sumptuous tea!

We shared stories and songs, made memories and captured moments.

This photo is of the ten ordained Baptist women present for the service - eight BUGB and two BUS.  Between us we must add to around 200 years of service in this capacity.  I love this colourful and vibrant photo (in which you can also see the wooden block church model!)
