With experience as a priest in various contexts, from pastoral work in large cities, to pastoral work with students and teenagers, in hospitals, prisons, to establishing new communities, I came to Carmarthen convinced that God had something for me to do, alongside you.

With the years spent with middle school, high school, and university students, teaching and lecturing, with people with special needs, with volunteers in various charitable institutions, I was able to grow through the opportunities I received. I understood that when interacting with others the best attitude is to react like the navigator of my car: if I make a mistake on the route, don't scold me, but show me that I'm on the wrong route and recalculate it.

There is a lot to say about how wonderful or hurtful people can be, but we can do it over a coffee, or a simple conversation when we cross paths in town. I am happy to meet you in our wonderful church as well. I can tell you what book I am reading now, what I have planted in the garden, or what I have read in the newspapers, especially since I learned something about this by working for many years as a journalist and administrator.

I am Nigel and I am one of the church wardens at St Peter’s, a role which I have thoroughly enjoyed for several years.

Whilst I am part of the team responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the church building, by far the best part about being a church warden is getting the opportunity to meet and greet people before and after our services.

We welcome you to join us at St Peter’s.

I am here in Carmarthen as a result of my desire to grow and be where God wants me to do his will. I grew up with the children I educated at school, I understood life through the eyes of those who are content with what they have, but also through the eyes of those who are less fortunate, working as a volunteer, employed in charitable institutions, but also as a chairman and administrator, creating my own charitable institution for neglected people. I had the joy of being offered the opportunity to study pastoral theology, and thus become a priest. It was a dream that, once for me, would have meant being stoned.

I like people and I know that, most of the time, people do bad things because they are too wounded in their being. I like to listen to people, because that's how I find the best way to communicate with them: through stories, through poetry, painting, and even just by being present. I like to spend time with others.

So, if you have stories, happy or sad, you like poetry, or even the pleasant silence of spending time together, I am here, in the town, in our wonderful church, at my house, at school, or even at your house. If it is difficult for you to come to meet me, I am happy to come to you.

Soong Ma

Church Warden

St Peter's, Carmarthen

My name is Soong and I have been People’s Warden for just over three years.

In that time it has been very gratifying to be part of St. Peter’s Church - to share in people’s joy at times of celebration and hopefully help to be a source of comfort and solace in the less happy times.
