Rev Bruce Stevens
By now most of the congregation will have met Rev Bruce Stevens or at least heard him preach for us . Bruce will now be preaching and administering the sacraments for our worship regularly on Holy Communion Sundays . He will also be undertaking a part-time pastoral care Ministry with St Margaret ’ s , including visiting parishioners in their homes or in hospital . If you would appreciate such a visit , please chat to Bruce after Sunday worship . In fact , chat with him anyway .
