Leominster Team Ministry

In order to enable the Clergy Team in the Western Group of Parishes to better meet the needs of parishioners given our limited manpower resources and to improve communication with parishes, it has been decided that each member of that team will be the Primary Contact for 2 of the parishes in the group.

The Primary Contact for the Parishes of Dilwyn and Monkland is Revd. John Theaker. John can be contacted at:

  • Monkland House, Monkland
  • Telephone 01568 720472
  • Email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

Revd. Christine Mundell will continue as Vicar of all the parishes in the Western Group but, in the first instance, you are requested to contact John Theaker on matters pertaining to the Parishes of Dilwyn and Monkland.
