Priest On Call — Serving Wiltshire & Beyond

I am excited to share this new chapter in my ministry: Priest On Call — Serving Wiltshire & Beyond.

For me, being a priest means being present where people need compassion, a listening ear, prayer and support. This new step is an opportunity to take that ministry further into our communities, meeting people where they are and walking alongside them through life’s challenges.

My hope is to offer reassurance in difficult moments, comfort to those who feel alone, and a welcoming presence to people of all faiths and none. Sometimes, simply knowing that someone cares and is willing to listen can make a real difference.

As I prepare for this next chapter, I feel a deep sense of purpose, gratitude and anticipation. There is much to do, but I am looking forward to the people I will meet, the connections we will build and the opportunities to serve.

Thank you to everyone who continues to encourage and support my ministry. Please keep this new venture, and all those it will reach, in your prayers.

A ministry of presence, compassion and hope — serving Wiltshire and beyond.
