The Easter Day service at Polwarth Church in Edinburgh was enhanced this year by the ordination and admission of eight new elders.

The six ordained were Claire Elizabeth Holmyard, Mike Holmyard, Averill Stapley, Rob Stapley, Astrid Daphne Telfer and Alison Kristina Joyce Wright. The two admitted were Peter Braynion and Pauline Rumbles.

Minister, the Rev Jack Holt, ordained Pauline in his last charge, Birse and Feughside Church in the Presbytery of Kincardine and Deeside. She is now Polwarth’s volunteer Outreach Worker.
