Welcome to the Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul, Shepton Mallet. It's wonderful to be able to share news of our Church through the medium of the Internet and we hope you'll enjoy reading about our activities here in Somerset.
Our new Priest in Charge, David Williamson writes:
"I intend to spend the early part of my ministry with you Looking, Listening and Learning to God, community and each one of you to discover what God is already doing. When I have done that we can then together start to shape a vision and a strategy to take us forward. We read in the Bible that Jesus only did what he saw His Father doing (John 5 v 19) and I have learnt by trial and error over the years that this is the best (if not only) approach to mission. We waste far to much time on agendas which are not in line with what God is doing and then we wonder why they do not achieve much. I do not come with a blueprint for mission here, we need to discover that together. I come with plenty of experience and a set of gifts and skills which have been forged and refined in many different situations.
Pat and I look forward to getting to know you and working with you to discover God's purposes and mission for this benefice."
May God bless you with joy, peace and love during 2012.
