Bishop Wilkinson writes ‘The appointment of the Reverend Ger James as our Diocesan Youth Coordinator is announced following an interview process chaired by Archdeacon Mark Hayden. This appointment was made with the support of the Diocesan Council. He will be involved in the administration of youth work in the Diocese, and continue to work alongside Canon Nicola Halford and others already engaged in this ministry.’
The reverend Ger James writes “I am delighted that I am being entrusted with the post of Diocesan Youth Coordinator – working with the young people in Cashel, Ferns and Ossory is going to be fun and very much a learning curve. While I already work with young people in my daily job this gives me the excitement of Youth Ministry and an opportunity to support and encourage those who already work with the young people of CFO. They are big shoes to fill and I hope with your support and prayers I will be able to at least half fill them.”
