Who's who in our church

Running a parish of this size involves a great number of people, some paid, but mostly volunteers. Here are some of the principal names and faces of the team at Ss Peter and Paul:

The Parish Priest is Dominic Barrington. He is the first port of call for anything to do with the life of the parish. You can learn a little more about Dominic by clicking here!

John Smith is an honorary Assistant Priest in the parish. A well known doctor in the area prior to his retirement from medicine, John was ordained deacon in the summer of 2006, and assists in the parish on a part-time basis.

Lesley McCormack is an honorary Assistant Priest of the parish. Well known to many people in the town through years of ministry at the General Hospital, Lesley now spends each Sunday and part of each week in ministry in the parish.

Jane Burns was elected as a churchwarden of the parish in April 2005. She and Paula carry out a huge range of important duties towards the running of the parish.

Paula York was elected as a churchwarden in April 2007. With Jane she shares a responsibility on behalf of the bishop to ensure that the parish is functioning well.

Renee Phipps is a licensed Pastoral Assistant. She works with the clergy in trying to ensure that the pastoral ministry of the parish is as effective as possible, and she has particular responsibility for overseeing our ministry in residential homes and with the housebound.

Brian Chapman is our verger and parish clerk. He is responsible for a lot of the day to day running of the church during the week. As well as a ceremonial role during services, he also deals with the administration of banns of marriage and looks after our registers.

Pat Edkins is the Tower Captain. If you are interested in learning to ring bells, she is the person to contact.

Bill Wright is our Director of Music. He runs the Choir, plays the organ, and oversees the musical life of both churches in the parish. If you are interested in joining the Choir he is the person to contact.

Martin Hill is our Head Server, and co-ordinates the servers at Ss Peter & Paul.
