South Tamar Mission Community
Welcome
Welcome to the website for the South Tamar Mission Community. From here you can find the websites for individual parishes. STMC is a group of 6 Church of England parishes in the rolling farmland of the Tamar Valley AONB, broadly between the River Tamar and the River Lyd. We have 2 primary schools in the area, and our schools volunteers also work in another on our borders. All our volunteers have DBS checks and undergo regular safeguarding training. We also have a strong pastoral team who work with people in local residential care settings, and trained Anna Chaplains specialising in spiritual support for the older age range. As well as a strong team of volunteers, we have a full time vicar - Priest-in-Charge, Reverend Gill George. We are also blessed with Local Lay Minister, Richard Searight, and retired priest, Revd Canon Tim Thompson.
