New Warden of Readers Dr Graham McAll is appointed as Warden of Readers for the Diocese of Sodor and Man with effect from 1 January 2019. Commenting on the appointment, Bishop Peter said: ‘I am delighted that Dr Graham McAll has accepted my invitation to become Warden of Readers in succession to Mrs Margaret Galloway.  Graham is well-known across the Christian community on the Isle of Man and indeed more widely, and he exercises his own ministry as Reader in the Parish of the West Coast and specifically at Kirk Patrick.  He brings to the role of Warden of Readers not just ministerial experience but also longstanding Christian faithfulness and discipleship, and a breadth of humanity arising from his career in medical practice.  I ask us to hold Graham in our prayers as he begins his work of caring for our Readers and supporting them in their ministry of grace.'… Read more
