On Sunday 18 February, the Chaplain-President was honoured to preach the college sermon in Christ's College, University of Cambridge. The theme for this term in Christ's College Chapel is "Translation", and Jack preached in both French and English on the acute problems of understanding which arise if the Greek text of the New Testament is mis-translated into English or French. The Bishop of Huntingdon was present in the service to give the final blessing, and Jack and Bishop Dagmar had a chance to converse about current EU affairs, where Bishop Dagmar's role as Vice-President of CEC is of invaluable service to the Anglican representation.

It was a wonderful opportunity for the Chaplain-President to share about how the Anglican church in Belgium operates and to connect with fellow Anglican clergy. Jack also always enjoys the chance to visit his alma mater, where his brother, Lord Simon McDonald, is the Master of Christ’s College.
