Partners together in faith

The Parochial Church Council is a largely elected group of Trustees each of which serves for three years. It is responsible for all the affairs of our work.

Our ministers and voluntary officers:

He has served as Chaplain to the Bishop of Liverpool and was Vicar of The Church of The Good Shepherd between Norris Green and Croxteth before coming to Kirkby.
