Fr Richard is our parish priest at All Saints by the Sea. He arrived from Hamilton just before lockdown where he was parish priest of Fairfield and Te Rapa parishes.

Fr Richard has a wealth of knowledge of scripture, liturgy and the laws of the church. He is a canon lawyer, which means that he has studied extensively. He is the person who is responsible for gathering and collecting information particularly in annulment cases. We are very fortunate to have Fr Richard here in our parish sharing his knowledge of scripture as well as the life and times of Jesus. We learn new things every time we hear his sermons - which bring real meaning to the foundations of our faith.

Fr Richard also has a great sense of humour - you just need to be quick enough to make the connections. LOL. Welcome to Mount Maunganui Fr Richard.
