Rivertown United Reformed Church

On Saturday 4th October we enjoyed a celebration to mark the calling of Rev. Colin Foreman to the Deeside Pastorate. The service was well attended and well received by all. Our time together included the necessary formalities but the overall feeling was of a special time together in the presence of God.

Our thanks go out to all those people who traveled far and wide to be with us and to be share Colin and his family's special day. People came from his recent pastorate in Milford Haven and others from past days at Rivertown. We were also pleased to see representatives of local and national government supporting us at this time.

Despite the difficulties caused by the roof work and scaffolding we managed to move from the induction service to a time to sharing and refreshments with relative ease!

Thank you to the people who presided, those who shared worship with us and a special thanks to those who took part. Without the hard working 'catering staff' we would not have enjoyed such a fine spread - thank you.

Of course, the induction only marks the start of our time together. We are looking forward with excitement and expectation that Colin's calling to our pastorate will enable us all to seek God's will for us as a pastorate and to be filled with joy as we look to the future and how we can bring glory to God during this new chapter.
