A bit about the Vicar...
Paul was appointed Vicar
at Christ Church in
September 2012.
Ordained in 1997, he
spent the previous 16
years as school teacher,
mainly in Bradford, but began his teaching career in Clifford.
After his curacy he became Vicar of Laisterdke and Tyersal in 2000 and was subsequently appointed by The Bishop of Bradford to be 'Mission Priest' in the parish of Baildon in 2006.
A teacher of PE and a keen sportsman in his younger days, Paul still plays golf with a handicap of 17.5, and is a member at York Golf Club in Strensall. He has served as Club Chaplain for both Bradford City FC and York City FC, but slipped out of Sports Chaplaincy to become honorary Chaplain at Archbishop Holgate's School here in York in September 2018 until July 2020.
He's presently offering 'Pastoral Support' to the members of York Golf Club.
