A wonderful celebration on Sunday 2nd October in the cathedral, when Rachael Wright was ordained deacon.

Rachael is pictured here with Bishop Ian, Rev Nerys Brown who will be her training Rector at St Mary’s, Dunblane, and Revd Canon Liz Baker, Rector of the Highland Perthshire charges where Rachael worked for three years as a mixed mode ordinand.

Bishop Ian sums up the day: ‘The Church of God has been changed… we have a new Deacon!’
