On 11th June I went to the Diocesan Office in London, to meet up with Sampson Ajuka, ouir very own Ordination Candidate, who is to become Asistant Curate in Padova. Of course Sampson and I already know each other well, and you can read a bit about him on the Padova Page of this site. We met with the Diocesan Director of Ordinands to discuss his on-the-job training programme which starts at his Ordination as Deacon, which is now announced for 2nd October, by our Diocesan Bishop Geoffrey, in St. George's Venice.
18/05/2008 - 09:15 Location(s)St. Anthony Abbot Via dei Savonarola, 176 Collegio Don Nicola Mazza Padova, 35137 PDItaly Our main weekly Act of Worship at Padova. Morning Prayer, led by our Readers-in-Training, with sermon, hymns, and chants accompanied by African drums. Bible Study precedes the service at 0845. This was what happened on 27th April, in the words of one of our members who e-mailed afterwards: "That was the most amazing meeting! The excitement and enthusiasm were incredible ." It was the Annual Meeting we held after our joint Chaplaincy Service (Venice and Padova together), and indeed, it was richly blessed, but I couldn't really have put 'Annual Meeting' as the title of this, or you wouldn't have bothered to open it!

22nd April. I 'm sorry to all readers (assuming there are any!) for my long silence on the blog - Preparations leading to Holy Week and Easter overwhelmed me. We had splendid celebrations for Palm Sunday and then for Easter at Venice on Easter Day, at Padova the following Sunday (30th March) and at Trieste only last Sunday, 20th April. All told, over 220 people attended; Venice became host to an extra 40 lovely people on tour from the US, as well as our usual 100+.
