Archdeacon of Barking. Views my own. RT = interesting, not that I always agree.




Delighted and thankful that this grant has been awarded. Well done to each and every lay, clergy and congregation member of Team Barking who has helped discern and shape this work, and to diocesan colleagues for their ongoing support.


A grant of £14.95 million has been awarded by the Strategic Mission and Ministry Investment Board to the diocese of Chelmsford for its “Believing in Barking” plan #Echobox=1744550083" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">churchtimes.co.uk/articles/2025/…







Today we said farewell to Archdeacon Elwin, who is retiring after seventeen years of service as Archdeacon of West Ham and thirty three years ministry in Chelmsford Diocese.
