On 13 November, the Chaplain-President was honoured to preach at choral evensong in his old college, Pembroke College Cambridge, where the chapel (built in 1665) was the first building designed by Sir Christopher Wren. His sermon explained the inspiration of the famous fictional detective Hercule Poirot in Agatha Christie's experience of some of the 250,000 Belgians who were refugees in the UK during the First World War, and supported continued Church support of the desperate, the vulnerable and the refugee.
