Pat Allerton

Pat Allerton grew up dreaming of becoming a fighter pilot, actor or surgeon. However, a spiritual awakening at the age of 18 turned his life upside down and his journey towards the priesthood began.
Pat was ordained in 2010 and now ministers at St. Peter's Church in Notting Hill where he devotes his time to helping people explore life's big questions. Following the closure of places of worship as part of the nationwide lockdown in response to the coronavirus, Pat visited residential streets and hospitals in London on his 3-wheel cargo bike to deliver a hymn and a prayer through speakers. He became known as 'The Portable Priest' and is credited with spreading a message of hope in the city.
