Our lovely vicar, Bishop Rob, has been with us for almost four years and will now be retiring to Hertfordshire. We are so grateful to him and his wife Janine, for all that they have done to make our church such a vibrant community. We will miss them very much, but wish them a blessed, long and happy retirement.From 28th April, we enter a period of interregnum until we find another priest to be our vicar. This means that each week there will be a different priest leading our Sunday Service. Our curate, Fr. Tim, will be with us on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month. More details about our mid-week service to follow.Do come and join us, you will still receive a very warm welcome.
