Spital Sermon by Canon Andrew White

These were the cookies on display and home made lemonade. All sold in aid of Canon White and his work in Baghdad. He spoke of his work in Baghdad and that his sort of motto was 'BAM'
The letter 'B' stand for black. Canon White said his swarthy complexion makes his work in Baghdad easier- he is taken as an Iraqi. The 'A' stands for Anglican and anaesthetics- and he has the unlikely combination of both titles- having been ordained as an Anglican priest and trained at St Thomas's in London in 'gassing'. The M stands for middle -east and multiple sclerosis (for which he is being treated) the sermon was inspiring and put his congregation in its biblical perspective. Ezekiel lived in this area and St Thomas converted the people from Judaism

'Even the most negative things are the work of God'
(Canon White)
