The Vacancy
The Vacancy was advertised nationally in the Church Times on 1 & 15 May and it is our hope that on 3 June we will be in a position to meet the Bishop of Bedford & other interested parties in order to draw up a short list. All we can say is that we promise to keep you posted.
You may have seen a notice on the church door earlier this month concerning the 'suspension of the benefice'. This confirms a technical change affecting the parish whereby the new appointment will be a 'Priest-in-Charge' rather than an incumbent enjoying what is known as the freehold of the parish.
This move, which was proposed by the Bishop in March and agreed the following month by the PCC will not, we have been assured, affect the appeal of the post to prospective applicants.
