Tarrant Keynston Village Hall Dear friends

SP 17th Salt and Pepper Club After a difficult couple of years, we have the good news in the Benefice that the
Rev Canon Richard Bartlett will be joining us as Vicar this month. Richard
introduces himself following on from this. You will have the opportunity to meet
23rd Winchester him almost immediately as we Walk, Talk and Worship together around the
Benefice in Holy Week. Richard wrote about this last month and repeats the
invitation below.

I will still be here in Bere Regis as Associate Priest, hopefully a bit more part time
than I have been. Richard will be living in Wool and has oversight of the whole
December Benefice which is why he is called Vicar and will be full time. He comes at an
exciting time as we all emerge, hopefully a bit more confident, from the winter
14th Salisbury Christmas Shopping and look forward to new challenges ahead. And with the people of Ukraine on
our minds, who knows what challenges may lie ahead, we must be ready to help
SP 15th Salt and Pepper Club where we can and continue the support that is needed for as long as it takes.
Sometimes events in the world seem very dark indeed, but the Easter story gives
us hope for the future. In Jesus the world is turned upside down – who else would
