Wonderful church in York centre & lovely Sunday service.

David Ashby

The homily has clearly had a lot of effort and study gone into it from a priest who was taking pleasure in not avoiding the difficulties that were brought up in a very difficult gospel passage, the parable about the dishonest servant who is praised by his master.
