Rt Rev'd Mark Davies is the Bishop of MIddleton in Manchester - he's also the Commissary Bishop appointed to take care of the Diocese of Sodor and Man until Bishop-Elect Tricia Hillas takes up her ministry on the Island in mid-November.In his capacity as Bishop of Sodor and Man, Bishop Mark was on the Island recently to ordain Rev'd Ian Quayle as Deacon, Rev'd Joanna Fisher as priest, and to confirm some members of Kirk Maughold.On today's programme, Bishop Mark talks about the significance of this busy weekend and we also hear from Rev'd Matt Allen, lecturer at Emmanuel College where Rev'd Ian and Rev'd Joanna have been studying, who preached the sermon at Rev'd Joanna's ordination.And there's music - and a packed notice board too!Items for inclusion can be emailed - judithley@manxradio.com
