EXCITING NEWS - Nicola Thorne – Licensed Lay Ministry Trainee

We are very pleased to announce that Nicola Thorne from the Edgemoor Group has
been selected to train for Licensed Lay Ministry (also called Reader ministry).
Nicola lives in Molland and is married to Robin. They have two grown up sons Will
and Josh. In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with her family and friends,
riding her horses, and running with her Sprocker Spaniel.
Nicola has completed the Foundation in Christian Ministry course and says she
thoroughly enjoyed it. She is actively involved in supporting the great team at St
Mary’s church, Molland, helping to lead lay services, acting as assistant
churchwarden and helping out where needed.
Nicola says she is looking forward to starting the course in September, although
perhaps not so much to all the essay writing! She is excited to be beginning this new
journey and helping within the Edgemoor Group when and where she can during and
after her training.

Rev Dominic Coad, the Team Rector, says, ‘I’m delighted that Nicola has been
selected for training. Licensed lay ministers are vital to the flourishing of the church,
especially in rural areas. I know that Nicola will be dedicated in her training and a
fantastic addition to the Ministry Team once licensed.’
