3 February

Dear Friends,

It is time to bid farewell. After almost three months as your locum, we return to Brazil early next week. We have enjoyed meeting so many people from the English Reformed Church, and beyond. We have kept ourselves busy with visits to museums and walks in the parks (weather permitting).

I have conducted worship, visited groups and people in and around the church, and provided pastoral care. The ministry in Amsterdam has been varied and rewarding.

I am excited that you will now 'call' a full-time minister, and wish you well as you embark on the search process.

Best wishes,

Graham
