Father Paul is a parish priest in Clerkenwell, London. His life is dedicated to expressing the extraordinary love of God for people, and thus to bring healing to the inner being of all who enter the church's doors. Father Paul's mission is part of the Church of England and as such, it maintains the same spirit of divine worship and liturgical tradition which was adopted by those who established the church. The parish is the heart of the Church of England. Each parish church is run by the priest in collaboration with the PCC or Parochial Church Councils. The parish structure means that the church is there for everyone. Ideally, everyone in England has a parish priest to whom they can turn. Everyone lives in a parish. This means it is an organisation for everyone, not just believers. Father Paul is familiar figure to those working in local shops and is readily available when counsel is sought by those in need. As a result of his determination and exceptional personality, Father Paul has managed to establish a warm and welcoming congregation in his Church that is made up of people from all around the world. He is spiritual leader, performer of civic duties, but at the same time he remains an ordinary man. Father Paul's mission reaches many today, but he believes it should be developed and enriched further, as the church has so much more to offer for the people living in the metropolis.
