Teresa writes....

Well, I'm not sure where to start... Before I was ordained we lived in Loughton and I have been a police officer in the Metropolitan Police, and a primary school teacher (Deputy Head at Theydon Bois Primary School).

I served my curacy in the parishes of Takeley and Little Canfield (near Stansted Airport) and I am currently the priest-in-charge of St Leonard's Church, Lexden, Colchester, and have been here seven years.

I am married to Martin, also a former policeman, who now works part time as an undertaker. I have two grown up children (Thomas and Siobhan) and three granddaughters, Emilia (2 and a half), Eleana (one and a half) and Charlotte (nine months) — you'll probably be seeing a fair bit of them!

In addition to being a parish priest I am also a Spiritual Director and a Bishop's Selection Adviser.

Martin is also a white water kayaker — so is very excited about the Lea Valley White Water Centre being on his doorstep; we like walking — and often go on walking holidays and we have two completely bonkers Springer Spaniels!

I look forward to meeting you all in November. With every blessing.
