St Paul’s is in the centre of Honiton High Street and is the Parish Church serving the whole town. St Paul’s is always open during daylight hours and we welcome people to come in to the church to visit, look around, to pray, or just to be quiet.

Canon Richard retires
Canon Richard Saunders, priest-in-charge at Gittisham has retired.
A service was held at St Paul's on Saturday 21st January to celebrate his ministry in our Mission Community.
The service, which was attended by Bishop Bob, was well attended and everyone enjoyed refreshments afterwards.
At 94, Canon Richard is now planning an "active" retirement.
Everyone at St Paul's sends him off with our very best wishes.
Welcome
We are delighted to announce that the new Team Vicar in the Mission Community will be The Revd Jane Lankester.
Jane will be licensed on February 15th at 7.30pm in St Paul's Church by the Bishop of Crediton. Jane is currently a curate in the Totnes Team ministry, a market town with 7 rural Churches, thus a similar set-up to the Honiton Team. Her curacy has been a rich experience, tough in places, journeying with Churches during tremendous times of change but also with lots of opportunities to engage with parents wanting their children baptized, couples wanting to be married and those bereaved needing comfort and compassion.
Before ordination training and formation, Jane, a Naval wife, was a full-time mum of 3 children. As they grew older she became involved in lay ministry, including much youth work; this led to training as a Reader.
She continues to be involved in Riding for the Disabled, loves to watch football when given the chance, read a novel and watch a film.
Our Website
A warm welcome to our website. This is an exciting development in our on-going mission which is enabling us to provide instant information for those seeking details of services, activities, and events, and also to point people towards what is happening in the life of the wider Diocese.
It is so good to be able to communicate in this way which is, after all, very much a part of the world of the 21st century! In every age Christians are called to proclaim the Gospel - the Good News of Jesus Christ - afresh in ways that are accessible to the society around them.
I hope that this website will prove a valuable tool in helping us to do that.
