Who's Who
Andrew Parry (Rector)
I have worked at various times as a secondary school History teacher; paramedic; commercial sales manager; internal auditor; Human Resources Systems manager; Human Resources Manager; and latterly as an HR consultant and business psychologist I was ordained in 2009, and work three days a week at St Marys Wexham usually Sunday, Tuesday and Friday. These days do vary a bit but please email or leave a message (07972142073). I’m a volunteer chaplain at Wexham Park Hospital, undertake various roles for the Deanery and the Diocese, and am a governor at two local schools. Outside of my faith, my primary interests are running (trying to get ready for my next half marathon) and mountain walking (I am a leader in the Stoke Poges Duke of Edinburgh award scheme) and history.
Jill Bell (LLM)
In 1985 she qualified as a solicitor and worked in local government for a number of local authorities until her retirement in 2015. Jill is part of the ministry team and regularly preaches at services, taking part in the home communions and at services at the Pines. She enjoys meeting people and during the pandemic has maintained connections through weekly letters and doing a weekly story for toddlers on Facebook. Her interests include walking, going out for meals with friends, reading detective fiction and visiting places. She’s recently become a grandma so is now learning new techniques to entertain young ones.
Vicky Clayton (Churchwarden)
I am currently sole Church Warden and one of the "8 o'clockers"; I also help quite a bit with behind-the-scenes administration as well as taking part in services at The Pines and Oak House Care Home. I enjoy spending time in my garden, ( plenty of ideas but not much stamina), and trying to make friends with a stray cat who has moved in. Also, I knit and crochet a little, read a little, write a little; love Excel Spreadsheets, the sound of the rain, and dabble in very amateur photography, putting some of my pictures on the front of the weekly Newsletter which I collate. Until lockdown I enjoyed helping the children at the local primary school to care for their gardens, raised beds and the large polytunnel. One of my most favourite things is walking along the seashore, alone, in the very early morning when there is nobody else around. I don't say much but I can listen.....
