New Children’s Ministry Advisor Appointed for Dublin and Glendalough
Archbishop Michael Jackson has announced that the Revd Baden Stanley, Rector of Bray (pictured), is to be the next Children’s Ministry Advisor in succession to the Revd Anne Taylor.
Commenting, the Archbishop said: “Baden has shown significant creativity in the expression of ministry from the perspective of children in his own parish. Many of us will remember with affection Lent 2013 through the lens of Narnia when the interior of the church was imaginatively transformed and thousands of people were able to see the thought pattern of CS Lewis through fresh eyes”.
The Revd Baden Stanley said he was delighted to have been appointed. “There is nothing quite like the wonder that children seem to capture so easily from a very young age. To be appointed as Children’s Ministry Advisor by the Archbishop is a pleasure and a joy. I hope to build on the excellent work that Anne has done over the years and look forward to serving the work of the Dioceses in this way when I get back to Parish ministry in September,” he commented.
He will lake up his appointment in September of this year.
