Welcome!

Welcome to Redruth Parish! My name is Becca Bell, and I am the brand new Rector here. I have recently moved from Liskeard in East Cornwall, where I was Priest in Charge to 4 rural parishes. I come with a family of a husband, 3 teenage boys, and a tortoise.

Being a parish priest is a weird but very wonderful mix of responsibilities. From caring for heritage buildings and their contents, to managing volunteers and rotas, to responding to pastoral need both in congregations and the wider community, and enabling the building of links between church and community. But the most important aspect of my role is to share the wonderful news of God’s love and purpose for us all, and to build confidence in the church congregations to join in with that task.

I am really looking forward to meeting folk over the coming months. Please forgive me if I forget names. Even when I struggle to put names to faces, God knows and loves you completely.
