Day to day management of the Church rests with the
Associate Vicar, Churchwardens and the
Parochial Church Council. The PCC has the responsibility of
finding the funds to run the Church and also contribute towards
the running of the Diocese.
The
Parish Council provides financial assistance towards the cost of
maintaining the churchyard.
Music
for services is provided by volunteer organists.
Services are supported by a mixed adult choir. The church bells
are rung for some services and for weddings. There is an active
group of bellringers.
The Parish is in the Diocese of Bath and Wells and
the Archdeaconry of Taunton (www.bathandwells.org.uk)
and the Rural Deanery of Crewkerne and Ilminster (www.crewkerne-ilminster-deanery.org)
The
parishes produce a bi-monthly church magazine, Cloverleaf. This is
delivered to homes in the three parishes. It is funded by advertisements
that are placed on a yearly basis. Articles from individuals and
