Congratulations to two newly ordained deacons: John Jordan and St Alban's own Jon Jenkins.
O God of unchangeable power and eternal light: Look favorably on your whole Church, that wonderful and sacred mystery; by the effectual working of your providence, carry out in tranquillity the plan of salvation; let the whole world see and know that things which were being cast down are being raised up, and things which had grown old are being made new, and that all things are being brought to their perfection by him through whom all things were made, your Son Jesus Christ our Lord; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
And what a glorious day it was! I'm always so impressed when I see how up to date you keep this page with your busy ministry. Congratulations.
