Paul Harris is a novice who’s currently exploring his ministry in Christ the King parish in Thornbury.  cliftondiocese.com went to Thornbury to meet Paul to find out what a novice is. 

You can listen to Paul’s fascinating podcast in the multimedia panel on the right.

Paul is a member of the Society of the Divine Saviour - The Salvatorians.  Together with the Salvatorian religious order Paul is spending a year to decide whether training for the priesthood with the Salvatorians is his future. 

Paul explains the purpose of the year he’s spending in Thornbury and tells us about his journey to Thornbury as well as his hopes for life in ordained ministry.  The global ministry of the Salvatorians is also highlighted by Paul whose insights into the dedication of priests working around the world bring to life their worldwide mission.
