The Rev'd David Perryman aka Dave
Dave originates from the seaside of Cape Paterson near Wonthaggi. Ever since he can remember Dave had a sense of being called into ministry, even as a young child. Dave completed Year 12 originally setting out to be a forensic scientist, pilot and policeman among other things. The call to ministry however drew him into study and formation.
Dave worked at KFC for 11 years whilst completing his studies to become an Anglican Minister. He was ordained Deacon in 2016 and Priest in 2017 shortly after arriving in Avon. He is married to Emma, and they are parents to Tim, Eli, Jacob and Luci.
Dave’s interests include reading, gaming, cricket, music and spending time with his family.

Anglican worship in the Stratford district dates back to around 1845. More than twenty years later, local Anglicans including Alexander Hamlyn and John King came together with the purpose of building a permanent place of worship. Holy Trinity opened on 2 September 1868 and has remained a place of worship, fellowship and service to the Stratford community ever since.
Generations of local families have worshipped within its walls, a connection celebrated in 2018 when the parish marked Holy Trinity's 150th anniversary. Today, Holy Trinity continues that story as part of the Anglican Parish of Avon — honouring those who have gone before while remaining a living community of faith for the generations still to come.

Cranswick and the Rev’d Allan Adeney, Rector of Stratford. Built through the faith and commitment of local families, St Mary’s continues today as a place of worship and community in the Parish of Avon.

All Saints’ has served the Briagolong community for more than a century. The present red-brick church was built in 1908, with its foundation stone laid by local philanthropist Rebecca Mills of Powerscourt on 9 April that year. A fine example of Federation Gothic architecture, the church contains memorials reflecting generations of local Anglican life and service.
The parish's connection with the wider district reaches even further back. The timber church now standing behind All Saints as its hall was originally opened at The Heart on 29 September 1884, before eventually being relocated to Briagolong in 1978.
