AFTER more than five years in Camelford, Rev Jim Benton-Evans and his family are on the move.

Rev Jim, who is Priest-in-Charge of Lanteglos-by Camelford with Advent, will join St Peter's Episcopal Church in Peebles and St Andrew's Episcopal Church in Innerleithen, Scotland,

Rev Jim told the 'Post' that he was very excited about the move.

"It's a fantastic opportunity for me and for the whole family."

Peebles and Innerleithen are larger parishes than Camelford and Rev Jim is enthusiastic about the potential he sees for the churches to grow and continue to improve their impact on, and support to, the local communities they serve.

"We've been in Camelford for five years or more now and the time was probably right for a move. We've had five fantastic years in Camelford. We wanted to make sure we got the right job and this one in Peebles is absolutely the right job."
