Our Minister

Our Church called the Reverend Helen Higgin-Botham, previously the minister at Gosport URC St. Columba, to be our minister and leader at our Church in Pagham. The Elders agreed to the scoping of Pagham United Reformed Church at 25% owing to our smaller congregation numbers in relation to Helen’s other new ministry of 75% at Christ Church Methodist & United Reformed Church, Chichester.
Helen commenced her ministry with us and at Christchurch on 1st July 2020 and her formal induction Service for Christ Church, Chichester and our Church at Pagham was held on Sunday 13th September 2020. The ‘open air’ service was held in Priory Park, Chichester, and was presided over by the Moderator, Bridget Banks, with the Reverend Kenneth Lynch, in his role, as interim moderator for the local churches, welcoming everybody and taking an active part in the proceedings. We were blessed with perfect weather for this special Service and around 80 people of all ages were in attendance. This included a number of Civic dignitaries who attended the service to formally welcome Helen to her new parishes.
