Methodists from across the Hinckley Circuit descended upon Barwell Methodist Church on Thursday Sept 1st to welcome the new Minister for Barwell, Earl Shilton and Newbold Verdon to the Circuit. The Church was bursting at the seams as the Chair of the Northampton District Rev Peter Hancock( a former minister at Burbage) gave the sermon. Rev. Wes Hampton conducted the service. Dave as he likes to be called was supported by his wife Sarah and daughter Emily. Their two older children could not be present Ben who works as a lawyer in London and Lucy who is currently studying in Iceland. Dave’s first service will be at Barwell on Sunday 4th September commencing at 10.45am.
