Sunday 19th October 2025
The Licencing of Rev. James Scott into the parishes of Whickham and Swalwell.
We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who came to support Rev. James Scott and his family at his licensing service this afternoon. We welcomed many people from many churches across the deanery.
We would like to thank the Right Reverend Sarah Clark, Acting Bishop of Durham, the Venerable Katherine Bagnall, Archdeacon of Sunderland and Revd Tom Brazier, Area Dean for coming and conducting the service.
We would also like to extend our thanks to everyone who took part and helped in the service and with the refreshments afterwards.
We look forward to the future with James joining the Whickham and Swalwell family.
