Through prayer and the laying-on of hands by the bishop and presbyters, the Church authorizes and equips new presbyters (priests) to celebrate the sacraments and to act as servants and shepherds to the people of God. Because we recognize that human strength is insufficient the ordination is preceded by prayer that the Holy Spirit will fill the candidates with grace and power to fulfil the ministry to which God has called each one of them. We offer a warm welcome to all who are taking part in this service, especially to the families and friends of the ordinands. Please take time before the service to pray for the ordinands and their families, and for the parishes in which they will serve. 3 THE ORDINANDS 10.30am Philip (Phil) Barlow All Saints, New Haw Diane Davidson Wisley with Pyrford Patrick Davies St Andrew, Oxshot James Ellin St John, Egham Rebecca (Becky) Heath-Taylor St Paul, Dorking Anna Norton St Peter, Chertsey Julie Partridge St Mary, Fetcham Vlada Rakin Walton-on-Thames 3pm Sean Beagley St John, Windlesham Timothy (Tim) Clifford Hill St Nicholas, Cranleigh Susan (Sue) Duplock St Mary, Camberley Kathryn (Kath) Morris St Saviour, Guildford Ben Perkins St Peter, Farnborough 4 THE BISHOP MUSIC One of the tasks of a bishop is to ordain Guildford Cathedral Choir is directed deacons and priests and to preside at by Katherine Dienes-Williams, Organist the Eucharist for the whole church.

In the Autumn of 2016 we launched our diocesan vision, Transforming Church, Transforming Lives, encouraging a deeper dependence on God in prayer, a focused attention to Parish Development planning and 12 Diocesan Goals as a framework for all of our mission here in Guildford. This has been well-owned from the start, not least because around 2000 people fed into the process through a SurveyMonkey and a series of clergy meetings and deanery prayer events; and at the heart of it is a commitment to growing ‘prayerful, confident disciples in daily life’, as expressed in the first and most important of the Diocesan Goals.

Our parish churches are a key part of our historical and architectural heritage as a nation and are often well-visited and well-loved. At the same time, they are living buildings, places of worship, fellowship and community engagement, through which and from which the church lives out its mission to be a transforming presence in the communities it serves: ‘salt and light’, in Jesus’ memorable metaphors. Guildford Diocese – which constitutes two thirds of Surrey, parts of North East Hampshire and one parish each in Sussex and Greater London - has many fine churches but not the very extensive medieval heritage found in some of the country, because much of Surrey was only developed with the coming of the railways.
