Vicar's Retirement

We want to announce that Bimbi and Anthea have begun their well-deserved retirement from full-time ministry. We give heartfelt thanks for their 28 years of faithful, inspiring and dedicated service at St Paul’s. Their leadership, encouragement and commitment to God’s work have blessed our church family in countless ways, and we pray that they will enjoy this new chapter of life with every blessing.

As we move into a period of interregnum, St Paul’s will be without a Vicar for a time. During this period, which may last for some while, our Church Wardens, Funke and Stephen, will have responsibility for the day-to-day oversight of the parish. However, this will very much be a shared effort, with all of us supporting and encouraging one another as we seek God’s guidance and discern His plans for the future of St Paul’s.

We are still fully open for all services and are still welcoming every generation to encounter the Living God.

St Paul’s, Crofton is a welcoming, Spirit‑filled church where we come expecting to meet the Living God. We want people of all ages to discover who they are in Christ, grow in the gifts of the Holy Spirit, and encounter Jesus in ways that shape everyday life. Through worship, prayer, community, and courses like Alpha, we create space for God to move and for real relationships to form.

Our heartbeat is simple: seek God’s presence, live out His Word, love our community, care for creation, and invite others to find life in Jesus. Whoever you are and wherever you’re starting from, you’re welcome to journey with us. If you’d like to connect or have any other queries, reach out to us at office@stpaulscrofton.org.uk
