Meet The Current Chaplain
Jim Perryman is the current part-time Short-Term Mission Manager at ICS, which means he is responsible for organising the teams of volunteer church leaders who serve in Zermatt and elsewhere through the summer and winter seasons. He will retire from this role in November after 13 years and is delighted to have the chance to serve as chaplain himself this year. He retired in January from his role as a part-time Parish Priest in a Warwickshire village.
He enjoys walking in the hills around Zermatt and seeing both the majesty of the mountains and the intricate beauty of the flowers, insects, birds and mammals - all of which speak of God the Creator.
He is also a keen genealogist, often doing family history research for other people.
