A former professional scuba diver along with teachers, lawyers, and youth workers are among the 22 people ordained deacons in special services on 30 June 2018. “If the Church of God in our generation can take up the towel and do what Jesus did, then perhaps there will still be a Church in 100 years’ time,” said the Rt Revd Alan Wilson, preaching at the morning service, when the deacons who will serve in Buckinghamshire and Berkshire were ordained. Bishop Alan encouraged the ordinands using the story of Jesus serving his disciples by washing their feet See the live stream of the ordination service and a behind the scenes photo gallery of the #newrevs over on our Facebook page: dioceseofoxford
