We are glad to welcome our latest World Church Fellow, Revd Dr Chris Barrigar from Canada. He will be with us for six weeks in Henry Martyn House, our Centre for World Christianity, where he is doing his own research as well as contributing to the college community.

He has been involved in theological education by extension in Canada and in India, where he worked with TAFTEE (The Association for Theological Education by Extension). While he is with us he will help to revise our Open Learning course on Christian Theology.

His doctorate (from McGill University, Montreal) is in philosophical theology and he has taught in theological colleges in Canada and India as well as supervising postgraduate research.

He is ordained in the Anglican Church of Canada and until recently was a member of the Church Synod. While in India he was involved with the Church of South India and was founding presbyter of a church in Karnataka. He is currently Incumbent of St Peter's Anglican Church, Montreal, Quebec.

World Church Fellows stay in Henry Martyn House on the campus and contribute their experience to our college life. Find out more about staying in Henry Martyn House.
