Diocese of Down & Dromore

Service of Introduction in Killyleagh

A new chapter has opened in Killyleagh Parish with the introduction of Revd Eben Grobelaar as Priest–in–charge. Eben is a long way from home having come to us from Johannesburg but he received a very warm welcome to County Down! The Revd Henry Blair, Mission Coordinator for SOMA UK & Ireland and the National Director for Ireland, gave the address at the service which took place on Wednesday evening, 31 January. Eben is the former leader of SOMA South Africa.
With thanks to the photographer Jeff Marshall.
