New 'Priest in Charge' appointed for St. Peter's Church
Tony Tooby has been appointed 'Priest in Charge' for St. Peter's Church Mancetter. He took up his post on 18th January and is keen to get to know everyone in the Parish. He was born in Selston in Nottinghamshire and moved to to Clipstone near Mansfield when he was three. His father was a miner and Tony followed in his footsteps for a short while.
Tony entered the ministry in 1989 and trained at Salisbury Theological College. He was ordained deacon in 1991 and was curate at Warsop, a mining town in Nottinghamshire. In 1994 he became associate priest of Ollerton, another mining town, before moving to his present post as vicar of St. Philips Girlington which is an inner city area two miles from Bradford city centre; a post he has held for the last eleven years.
He sees himself as a community priest working for the good of all people.
Tony supports Nottingham Forest and says he loves all sport.
