The Church of Ireland Bishop of Cork, the Right Reverend Dr Paul Colton, has announced that, following meetings of the Board of Nomination, the Reverend Kingsley Sutton has been appointed as the new rector of Kilgariffe Union of Parishes (centred on the West Cork town of Clonakilty). The Service of Institution will take place on Tuesday, 19th April in Kilgariffe Parish Church.
Bishop Colton said:
I am pleased that the Board of Nomination are giving him that opportunity. I know that he will receive a warm and encouraging welcome in Kilgariffe Parish. We also look forward to welcoming him and his family to the Diocese, and to supporting Kingsley in this new beginning in ministry.
Kingsley is originally from County Wicklow, and most recently worked in Newry, County Down.
