Canon Simon Bessant talks to parishioner Burbel Smith on his visit to
his home Church on Sunday 25th June. Simon was baptised and brought
up at St Paul's and it was a great joy to welcome him back to his roots.
He is now Canon Missioner at Blackburn Diocese, a member of the General
Synod, the Archbishops' Council and other Synod committees.
The Right Reverend Noel Jones was celebrant and preacher at St. Paul's
for the Feast of Pentecost. The Bishop and his wife Joyce were welcomed
