A Sutton woman is leaving her post as a minister in the Airedale Methodist Circuit to do mission work on Mauritius.
The Rev Charlotte Common, who is the minister for St Andrew’s Church, Cowling, Steeton Methodist Church and Eastburn Chapel, is departing next month to spend five months exploring her ministry on the island, off the south-east coast of Africa.
German-born Mrs Common, 62, has worked at several Methodist churches in the Airedale Circuit.
Members of her current congregations in South Craven and anyone interested in seeing Mrs Common before she leaves for Mauritius is invited to attend a farewell service at Keighley Shared Church on Monday, July 16, at 7.30pm.
The service will feature performances by the Rock Up and Sing choir, a solo by Nikki Barrett, and two local Christian bands, Big Sing and Undercover.
