Introduction to our new Minster Curate
Our new Minster Curate, Kara Gander, arrives this summer. Here’s what she has to say:
“Hello, I’m Kara and I am thrilled about the opportunity to serve as a curate in Swadlincote! My deep passion lies in creating an inclusive and accessible church, and I am excited to witness the amazing work that God is doing to establish his church, particularly in South Derbyshire.
During my free time, I enjoy activities including sewing, crafting, origami, and long walks with my excitable dog, all of which are part of my spiritual rule of life.
My family and I are eagerly looking forward to becoming a part of the community in Swad. My husband, Ben, is an enthusiastic secondary school teacher, and our three children are avid board gamers and enjoy computer games. In Milton Keynes, the kids were actively involved in scouts and supported the local football team, and they are eager to find a new local team to support here. We are sincerely grateful in advance for the warm welcome!”
