Bishop Graham to Visit Langton


The Bishop of Sherborne, Rt Rev Dr Graham Kings, will be visiting the small village church of All Saints, Langton Long, this Sunday (10th January) to rededicate the building after recent work on the building. There will be a United Service of Holy Communion at 11.00am, with no 10.30am service (although Children and Young People will be meeting at Church for their own event.

Dr Kings will be visiting All Saints, Langton Long, for a service of Holy Communion on Sunday 10th January, to rededicate the building after a £100,000 project to reorder the Church. The work included the moving of the Font, the Introduction of a toilet and utility room, a new Kitchen, clearing pews, relighting and redecorating the Church and Vestry, as well as an external ramp to make for easy access. The work has been undertaken over the past few months with the expressed intention that the renewed building will be a vital tool in achieving the vision of the Parish "To build a joyful community of healing and wholeness."

The Rector of Langton Long, Rev Tim Storey, said "The visit of the Bishop is a rare and valuable opportunity for All Saints to let people know that not only is the building now a wonderful place to worship, but that the people of the Church are seeking welcome all who share our vision of a place of healing and wholeness."
