Bishop Sean has been in Oman this week, meeting the council of St John Muscat as they finalised the process of shortlisting candidates for the post of parish priest.

He was delighted to be able to take the service there on Thursday night—a wonderful opportunity to worship with the congregation and learn more about its members.

Bishop Sean also expressed his gratitude to the British Ambassador to Oman, Dr Liane Saunders, who was able to meet him during his stay in the Sultanate.
