Later this year, we (that is me, my wife, children and assorted pets that we have not mis-laid on the way) are moving.
We are all going to
Cuddesdon, in Oxfordshire, where both my wife and I will be studying for Ministry Training, as part of approaching Ordination in the Church of England.
This is a big move for the family and there are many questions which remain unanswered. Over the next few weeks we have to:
- decide what to do with the house - this has been the family home where both the children have spent most of their lives;
- sort out new schools;
- sort out the clutter that grows up around a family; and
- complete what seems like endless amounts of forms.
But I have now handed in my notice at work, and it has been announced at church what we will be doing. And this is not a recent development. Due to many years of dithering of mybehalf, and the long discernment process the church embarks upon, we have known that this may happen. And it was back in February that I attended the Bishops Advisory Panel (Hilary attended her panel a month later).
