‘Anyone is welcome’<br />
By DAVID HILL<br />
New Rangiora vicar RevToby Behan<br />
wants hisparish to be ‘‘welcoming and<br />
inclusive’’.<br />
While issuessuch as samesex marriage<br />
havebeen divisive within the church,Toby<br />
wants everyone to be welcome.<br />
‘‘Anyone is welcome into thischurch. I<br />
don’t think anyone is worsein<br />
God’s eyes.Weall fallshort<br />
andGod sees us all the same.<br />
‘‘Churches can be quite cold<br />
andAnglicans can be more<br />
about formalism and the way<br />
things aredone,but I’vebeen<br />
pleasantly surprised by the<br />
loveofGod in this parish.’’<br />
It is 45yearold Toby’s first<br />
appointment as avicar,after<br />
coming to ministry in midlife<br />
after acareerasaballet<br />
dancer in his 20s,before<br />
working for Telecom in acall<br />
centre and then IT.<br />
He is following in the footsteps of his<br />
father, Rev WallyBehan, aretired<br />
Anglican minister who served 19 years at<br />
theLatimer Square parish. Hisbrother Jay<br />
is alsoanAnglican minister in<br />
Christchurch.<br />
It was while attending worshipat<br />
Latimer Square that Toby says he finally<br />
answered the calltoministry.<br />
‘‘I’ve been aChristian since<br />
intermediate school. Over time Istarted<br />
thinking about how Iwas contributingand<br />
Ifelt acalling. There wasthe calling, butI<br />
Rev Toby Behan<br />
kindoffelt Iwasn’tgood enough and I<br />
needed to getrid of that.’’<br />
After training, he servedtwo years as a<br />
curate at the Merivale/St AlbansAnglican<br />
Parish in Christchurch before being<br />
appointed to Rangiora in December.<br />
Tobyhas moved to Rangiora with his<br />
wifePrue, 17yearold daughterTwyla,<br />
who is taking agap year after finishing<br />
school, and 15yearold Toby,<br />
who is in year11atMiddleton<br />
Grange Schoolin<br />
Christchurch.<br />
‘‘The parish has been<br />
incredibly welcoming. Prue<br />
and Ihave felt really<br />
privileged to be here. There<br />
weregifts in the house when<br />
we arrived and people had<br />
comeand tidiedupthe<br />
garden.’’<br />
His new parishincludes<br />
congregations at Loburn and<br />
Fernside,aswell as Rangiora.<br />
He seeshis role as being to<br />
walkalongside people in their faith<br />
journey.<br />
‘‘I’m not here to dispense God’sgrace.<br />
I’m not aspiritual vending machine. Ijust<br />
wanttohelp the parish grow, as in growing<br />
people individually in their relationship<br />
withGod.’’<br />
Tobysayshelooksforward to getting to<br />
knowhis new community and enjoys being<br />
just 15 minutes fromthe beach and the<br />
mountains. He is alsoakeen golfer and<br />
hopes to become more familiar with the<br />
local courses.
