OUR CLERGY
Our New Vicar - Reverend Ben Sear
By way of brief introduction, I am married to Claudia and we have a daughter called Phoebe who is 2 years old (and full of beans) and we are expecting our second child in March. I have been serving my Curacy at All Saints Church in Patcham, Brighton, which has been a very positive 3 and a half years for us, and we are now looking forward to joining you in Maresfield and Nutley.
I am excited about taking on the role of your Incumbent and serving alongside you in the cause of the Gospel. I trust that Christ will provide for us as we seek to grow as disciples and reach the people of our villages with the love of God. I look forward to seeing you all very soon.
In Christ
Ben
