A special service was held on Saturday, 11th September, welcoming the congregation at St. Paul’s, Bexhill-on-Sea, back to the Free Church of England. The service was lead by the Bishop of the Diocese, Rt Revd Paul Hunt, and included the licensing of the minister, Revd Dr Peter Gadsen. Revds Mark Spiers, Ben Crick, Jabson Watson and Ambrose Oliver assisted and music was provided by Joanson on piano and Juanita on violin.
It was a lovely day and the service was followed by a delicious buffet in the church hall. There was even time to enjoy an ice cream on the sea front afterwards! The FCE is very glad to welcome the congregation, and looks forward to a long and rewarding fellowship together.
