I have indeed met her. The URC system means that once she felt she had been called to the post she came and met the elders and we, and she, decided whether we would be a good fit for each other. As we were happy she then came and 'preached with a view' - which wonderful phrase means that she came and took a service and all the members then voted on whether we wanted her or not. We did! it was unanimous.
She is Rev Dawn Mather who has come to us from the hospital chaplaincy in Weston super Mare. She arrived on the island a couple of weeks ago and is now beginning to learn the island and the two churches. She takes her first service in Ramsey this Sunday, and her first in Douglas on May 12th.
