Camelot Parishes

“A family of rural churches proclaiming the greatness of God.” 

 

WELCOME TO THE CAMELOT PARISHES WEBSITE

Welcome to the website for the Camelot Group of parishes.  We hope it will both inform and encourage you.  As Christians we wish to grow in the knowledge of God’s love in Christ so that we may pass that love on to others.  Our prayer is that “we might live in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us”. (Ephesians 5:2).

Pastoral reorganisation in the Deanery means that the Camelot Parishes will be split up with individual parishes joining neighbouring benefices.  The formal process has yet to take place, but in the meantime the parishes of North Cadbury, South Cadbury and Yarlington are working with the parishes of the former Cam Vale benefice under an interim minister, the Revd Caroline Walker.

Bratton St Maur is working with the parishes of the Bruton benefice, while Holton and North Cheriton are joining with Templecombe, Henstridge and Horsington to form a new benefice.  And Blackford, Compton Pauncefoot and Maperton will begin working with the parishes of the Milborne Port/Charlton Horethorne benefice from April.
