It has been a privilege, honour & great pleasure to have served you as your Parish Priest for the last ten years. The parish has grown new people have joined us & all the Churches have a great sense of community. Father David is a lucky man indeed and I know you will give him a warm welcome, if I had to appoint a successor it would have been him, he will keep you on the ‘right path’. Thank you for all the kindness & friendship you have shown me, it would have been an impossible task without it & I am very grateful to each & every one of you. If I have in anyway offended any I ask forgiveness. I ask you to remember one thing, if you forget me that is of no consequence but if you forget Jesus, you lose everything. With every blessing I can muster to each & everyone of you, continue to love & serve the Lord.
With fondest love
Father Robert

For your information or assistance…
We have two email addresses that perform different roles. Just to clear any confusion here is a reminder.
holyroodchurchmr@outlook.com is the one to use to communicate with Fr. David directly re spiritual, personal, or ongoing matters.
holyroodmr@gmail.com was set up in 2020 to deal with general enquiries, communication generated via the website, and third parties such as West Lindsey churches festival. These emails are initially looked at by the bulletin team and passed to Fr. Robert if appropriate.
God bless you all,
Fr. Robert
