Following a discussion at the CHA Board meeting about Old Blues at University welcoming newcomers from CH, it was something of a co-incidence that attending Sung Eucharist this morning in the Exeter University Church of the Holy Trinity, I was delighted to see Jonathan (the senior sacristan at Exeter University) doing his thing including administering the cup to me at communion time; what I did not expect was that his assistant was Catherine Barber ex Col B and Grecians West. Both went this last summer to Taizé with Munna Mitra and, apparently, Catherine asked Jonathan to whom she should talk if she wanted to help in the University church. His reply was "well, that would be me!". Since she arrived, he has been tutoring and mentoring her in the University Chapel. Apparently, Catherine,studying English, is to write this year's musical for Methang (the Methodist and Anglican Society) at Exeter.
In the picture below, Catherine (Col B and Grecians West) and Jonathan (Pe A and Grecians West) are seen with the University chaplain, the Revd. Charles Hadley.
It is a small world
