The Deanery of Carnmarth South is one of the most compact of the twelve Deaneries in the Diocese of Truro and comprises the towns of Falmouth (the three parishes of King Charles the Martyr, All Saints and Penwerris) and Penryn (St Gluvias) and the surrounding parishes of Mawnan, Budock, Mabe, Mylor and Flushing (the latter two parishes forming a single benefice).In addition to the nine parishes, the Deanery now includes New Street Church, which meets in All Saints Church building. New Street Church exists, under the Carnmarth South Bishop’s Mission Order, as a CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation). It has full rights of representation on Deanery Synod. The Deanery is home to the two campuses of Falmouth University and the University of Exeter in Cornwall and to most of the students and many of the staff.This Deanery Plan lays out or story and our hopes for the future. We hope you will enjoy reading it, please keep us all in your prayers.
