Tottington Parish Needs Your Help
Following the departure of the Reverend Hugh Bearn who had been part of Tottington village life for over a quarter of a century you may have thought that in due course he would be replaced with another full time Vicar. This is currently not the case!
St. Anne’s has been informed by the Diocese of Manchester, that the Parish will only be given a part time Vicar who may be shared with other churches in a wider mission community. We need to demonstrate there is widespread support for a full-time vicar so we need your help to persuade the Diocese.
There are two ways in which you can help:
Pastoral Enquiries
We are very happy to respond to any pastoral enquiry. Please email hello@tottingtonstannes.org.uk and we will always do what we can to help.
Safeguarding at St Anne’s
The care and protection of children, young people and adults involved in Church activities is the responsibility of everyone who participates in the life of our Church.
Services at St Anne’s
