Reverend Canon Dr Sally Welch to take up new role as Vicar of Kington Group of Parishes
The Revd Canon Dr Sally Welch, our Diocesan Canon, has been appointed as the new Vicar of the Benefice of Kington St Mary with Huntington, Old Radnor, Kinnerton and Titley in the Diocese of Hereford.
Canon Sally has been part of our Christ Church community since September 2022, while also serving as one of the Bishop's Advisers for Women's Ministry. She has made an indispensable contribution to the life of the Cathedral, including her leadership in our education activities and in establishing the new St Frideswide's Way earlier this year.
She is due to begin her new ministry on Advent Sunday, with her final service in Oxford on Sunday 27th October. There will be an opportunity to say goodbye and wish Canon Sally well, with more details to follow nearer the time. As she prepares for this next stage in her ministry, we hold Sally and her family in our prayers and we pray also for the people of the five Kington parishes as they look forward to her arrival. Congratulations Canon Sally - you will be missed!
