Appointment of new Vicar at St. Andrew's

by Adrian Smith, Webmaster and Communications Officer

6 May 2007

 

The Churchwardens are delighted to announce the appointment of Revd. Jim Cox as the new Vicar of St. Andrew's Church, Taunton.  Jim, 41, is currently the Vicar of Holy Trinity Church, Parish of the Resurrection, Smethwick. He is married to Doreen, a Consultant Radiologist, and they have three children, one who will shortly be starting university, and two of whom are at primary school. If all goes to plan, the family will move into the Vicarage in August in time for the start of the new school term. 

 

Jim's institution at St. Andrew's will take place on Tuesday 2 October 2007 with The Bishop of Taunton.

 

We will be publishing more information about our new Vicar and his family on this website in the near future, together, we hope, with a photograph.

 

All of us at St. Andrew's extend the warmest of welcomes to Jim, Doreen and family, and look forward to getting to know them later in the summer.

 

The following prayer was used at our morning services on Sunday 6 May.

 

Heavenly Father, we thank you for your blessings on us during this time of vacancy. We continue to pray for June and Stephen our Churchwardens, and for all members of our PCC.

 

We pray for Jim Cox, his wife, Doreen, and their family as they begin preparations for their move to Taunton.

 

Be with us all and guide is with your Holy Spirit so that your will may be done in and through this church and our community.

 

We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.

 

Amen
