This summer, we welcomed three new members of clergy to the Barnes Team Ministry and St Richard’s Ham.
The Revd James Hutchings has been appointed to the post of Team Rector of Barnes in the Deanery of Richmond and Barnes. James was the Team Rector of Littleham-cum-Exmouth with Lympstone, and Rural Dean of Aylesbeare, in the Diocese of Exeter.
Rev’d Hutchings was instituted at St Mary’s, Barnes by the Bishop of Kingston on Monday 22nd July.
