A New Vicar at St Andrew’s & St Mark’s

The Rev Chris Rankine is being licensed tonight at St Andrew’s church, Maple Road – the successor to Robert Stanier.

The service, led by the Bishop of Kingston, the Rt Rev Martin Gainsborough, starts at 6pm in the church.

Ordained in his late 20s after a spell working as an accountant, Chris is married to Fiona (who works for the Shooting Star children’s hospice). They have four grown-up children. Before the move to Surbiton, he was priest at St John’s church, Fulham.
