New Parish Team

Fr Martin Boland (seen here front left with Fr Adrian Graffy front right) took over as Dean of the Cathedral and Parish Priest of Holy Cross & All Saints, Warley on 29 September.
For eight years before coming to Brentwood and Warley Fr Martin had been parish priest at Brightlingsea and Wivenhoe, and Chaplin to the University of Essex at Wivenhoe Park near Colchester.
He is assisted by Fr Adrian, who is already very well-known to parishoners at both Warley and Brentwood. Fr Adrian is also Director of the CEF (Commission for Evangelisation and Formation) based at Cathedral House.

Father Bill Nix has now moved to his new parish in Braintree, while his erstwhile assistant Fr Paul Keane has become Parish Priest at Fr Martin's previous parish.

Deacon Paul Conrad remains in post.
