SERVING THE PARISHES OF ALL SAINTS’ HOLY TRINITY ST MARY’S 50p Per issue Baschurch Weston Lullingfields Hordley Introducing your new curate Hello, my name is Steve Alston. I am to be the new curate for the bene- fice starting in late summer. Some of you might remember me as I did a 10-week placement with you in the summer of 2018 as part of my ordi- nation training. I remember how warmly I was received by you all and am looking forward to getting to know you all better. Linda has asked me to tell you a bit about myself so here goes. I was born in London and spent most of my life there. Ten years ago, I moved to Shrewsbury with my wife Rosie and two sons Jack (now 20) and Ben (now 19). Both Rosie and I are teachers, Rosie in primary school and I in secondary. We both spent many years working in inner London compre- hensive schools. Currently Rosie works for the Shropshire Music Service and I at Concord College as a Biology teacher. I have a passion for the natural world and, in a former life, worked as a research scientist in the Natural History Museum in London. Of all God’s creatures, fish are my favourite and most of my research was on fish and their diseases. Family holidays also usually involve nature, we love climbing the Welsh peaks, sailing on the Norfolk Broads and peering into rockpools in north Devon.
