Rev’d Paul Jackson

Hi, I’m Paul one of the Curates, I am self- supporting which means I have a full-time career as an Ambulance Paramedic and I give my free time to both churches.

I am married to Jayne we have two grown up daughters and four grandchildren and we all live in Haxby.

I trained with NEOC Durham University and was ordained in York Minister in 2008.

I am particularly interested in Sacramental ministry and how God meets us in love in the experiences of our ordinary lives, in all of this, we are led to consider what it means to be the people of God, the body of Christ and be members of the church family.
