[Magdalen] Worship leader

I currently am licensed as worship leader, Eucharistic Minister, and
Eucharistic Visitor.
I do not know of anyone in this dio licensed to preach.

When a priest is out after about Wednesday when bulletins are done, I
follow the service
as if we were having Eucharist but close at the designated time. If we have
advanced notice,
I do MP.

We have had a supply priest for some time, but are close to having a priest
in charge.
I am guessing we will only need MP for a couple of weeks.
