Revd Judy Stote, Retired clergy with permission to officiate (PTO)

Ministers mainly at Mapplebleborough Green church but also, occasionally at Studley church.
  
I lived in Mappleborough Green for over 30 years and have been a church member there for almost 40 years. I became a Lay Reader in 2005 and then at the end of my working career, I went on to study and train for ordination as an Ordained Local Minister, which allowed me to stay and minister in the parish where I lived.  I played a key role through two interregnums across the four churches in the benefice and felt privileged to be alongside people through their various life-events.
I was widowed in 2013 but I have 3 children and 5 grandchildren, all living close by and still love having everyone round for family meals. (though very noisy and exhausting ?)
My ministry has been and continues to be a source of great joy to me, especially officiating at the marriages of children I taught in Sunday school and now I find myself Baptising their children!
In my spare time, I enjoy handicrafts, word, or number puzzles, reading and I like watching quiz shows on TV.
