Reverend David Croucher, affectionately known as the Rockin' Rev, has joined St Felix Catholic Church in Felixstowe as its new deacon. Originally from South Wales, Croucher's passion for music began in the 1960s, inspired by The Shadows. He developed his guitar skills throughout his youth, playing in various bands.
Later in life, at the age of 45, Croucher felt a strong calling to the church. He was working as a pharmacist before his ordination at Portsmouth Cathedral in 2004. He has since integrated his musical talents into his ministry, performing at care homes and folk masses, demonstrating that a dog collar and a guitar can indeed harmonize.
