Update from James & Alice Pettit

James & Alice (who worked at Malmesbury Abbey until 2009 as Associate Pastor and Pastor for Youth & Creative Arts) are on the move from their current base in Faversham, Kent. From the start of January 2013, James and Alice will be moving to Sittingbourne (which is 20 minutes nearer to Malmesbury!), where James will be Team Vicar of St Mary and St Michael. http://www.saintsinsittingbourne.co.uk/ Alice will complete her time as Curate by working with James, as part of the same team. James’ licensing will be at the end of January (probably Monday 28th). 'Thank you for your prayers and support, we wish you a happy and blessed Advent and look forward to seeing you again soon!'

You can see the latest news from Kigezi here http://connected.tearfund.org/en/project_link/choose_a_project/africa/uganda_-_water/ and a short video about Christmas in Uganda here http://www.tearfund.org/en/resources/for_churches/pack_library/with_love_from_uganda_resource/. Thank you for being involved in such a great project.
