Clergy
All of the clergy are priests of the Society of the Holy Cross, and as a parish of the Society of S. Wilfrid and S. Hilda we receive sacramental and pastoral oversight from Rt Revd Norman Banks, Bishop of Richborough.
The Revd Canon Paul Noble SSC

Fr Paul was brought up in Norfolk and trained for the priesthood at S. Stephen’s House, Oxford. He was ordained to serve as a Curate in Cheltenham, and then was a Parish Priest near Tetbury for five years before moving to Lincolnshire. In this Diocese he was Rector of a group of rural parishes and then Rector of Skirbeck, becoming Vicar of All Saints in 2019.
He was married to Kate before ordination and they have four adult sons. As a traditionalist Anglo-Catholic Fr Paul hopes to maintain and build up the Anglo-Catholic witness and mission of All Saints Church, reaching out to the community and constituency it serves.
