Closing the Year of St Paul and Honouring a Man of Today
A large congregation witnessed the close of the Year of St Paul at St Anne’s Cathedral on Saturday 27th June – the Feast of Ss Peter and Paul. In his opening remarks Bishop Arthur said that it had occurred to him that a fitting way to close the year would be by bringing the two Saints together once again. He reminded everyone that an Icon of St Paul had been blessed to open the year; during the year this had been taken around the diocese for everyone to see. To bring the year to a close the Bishop blessed a similar Icon of St Peter and said that both Icons would remain in the Cathedral on display. He said that although the two men were like chalk and cheese, St Peter a down to earth working man and St Paul an intellect, they had been great co-workers. Bishop Arthur added that he liked to think that St Peter was like a Yorkshire man; honest, truthful, caring sometimes blunt in the way he spoke (often in haste) and remorseful when he had had time to think of what he had said.
