Fr John Pearson-Hicks writes...
I am the priest in charge of St Barnabas and have been in post since 2015. People often ask me about the "priest in charge" title. It's almost the same as calling me "Vicar". But how would I describe St Barnabas Church? A place of encouragement and service. A small (and growing) community where people can be as involved as they feel called to be. Women and men play an active part in all aspects of parish life. We are fortunate to have an Assistant Curate, the Revd Theodora Jejey, who is currently completing the final stages of her training. There are a small number of families with children in the congregation, and they take part in various aspects in the service on Sundays. We have a wonderful parish primary school which welcomes children of all faiths and of none. Whilst the word "inclusive" can be used in different ways and for different reasons, we would say we are "inclusive" because Jesus calls us to welcome everybody. We are a dog friendly parish too! A number of the congregation bring their dogs to services with them. Feel free to contact me directly by phone, or email, if you would like to know more about parish life or faith matters.

St Barnabas has been in receipt of a Covid Recovery Fund which went towards the costs of keeping the parish church 'operational' (March-October 2021). This included things like covering the costs of our insurance, some of our bills and things like the "kneeler kits" to encourage volunteers. Some of this can be seen on Wednesday afternoons - St Barnabas Sewing Bees. It has also paid for a new Church History Brochure (Church Guide) which is available in church. Copies can be posted.
