On Tuesday 1st March, Rev’d Sister Margaret Anne ASSP is moving from this area, to live in Church of England retirement accommodation at Ramsay Hall in Worthing. Sister Margaret Anne writes:

“I have very much enjoyed my ministry in local parishes and I will miss the people and places where I have served for these last nearly six and a half years. Thank you all for your support and encouragement, which means much to me.”

As a Deanery, we are very grateful for the ministry of Sister Margaret Anne. During the first lockdown in 2020, she wrote nearly 40 daily reflections (click here to read) which were a source of encouragement and inspiration during those strange times. She has also led services in many churches in the deanery and reached so many people.

We wish here well during her retirement.

From St Mary’s Barnes:

We would like to record the huge thanks of this parish for the ministry which Sister Margaret Anne has given, before, during the vacancy and since then. She has been an important part of our ministry team and helped many with her preaching, leading of worship, conversation and support.

From St Luke’s and the Barn Church, Kew:

We are extremely grateful for Sister Margaret Anne’s ministry and support, particularly during the interregnum, and wish her well in her retirement.

From Richmond Team Ministry:

We thank to Sr Margaret Anne for all the support she has given to the parishes of the Deanery, including the Richmond Team, over the six and a half years she has been in Richmond, and am sure we all wish her well with her move and all that lies ahead.
