Memorial Service for Dr John D Baildam

Further to the announcement regarding Dr John Baildam's passing, we can confirm that his Memorial Service will be held at the Newbold Church at 14:00 on Monday, 11 September.

Please take note of the date should you plan to attend the service.

Dr Baildam was a former principal of Newbold College and a member of the British Union Conference Executive Committee for many years. He died after a short and unexpected illness. Our prayers are with his wife, Lynda and the wider family, who will appreciate the time to mourn in private as they come to terms with their loss.

We also think of John's much wider circle of friends and colleagues around the world through his work in Adventist education and his many connections and affiliations with other educational establishments, some secular and some from other denominations.

Your prayers of comfort and encouragement will be much appreciated. Messages of condolence can be sent via the Newbold Church pastor, Marcel Ghioalda, mg@newboldchurch.org.
