In 2003 Rev. John Pawson officially retired on 15th September and the church went into a long period of Interregnum with Rev Trevor Harvey acting as Associate Priest during this time. We entered the 21st Century by creating our first website!

 

In June 2005 Rev Paul Blanch became vicar and started pilgrimages further afield to Rome & Assisi in 2006, Lourdes in 2007, Venice in 2008 and the Holy Land in 2009.

 

In 2009 a Memorial Garden was created to the rear of the church with 14 Stations of the Cross. Also, in 2009 “Fan the Flame” week lead by the Mission Committee was a successful attempt at outreach in the community with young Christians taking an active part in plays, prayer and worship.

 

In October 2009 Fr Paul Blanch left to take up a post in the USA and we were thrown into another period of Interregnum. During this time lay ministry together with support from the congregation kept the church together.
