Public Meeting – Wednesday 25th June, 7.30pm
Invitation to a public meeting regarding the recruitment process for a new team vicar, including Bishop Jane and Archdeacon Charles of the Diocese of St Albans. Venue: Thomas Field Hall, Little Gaddesden Church. Date: Wednesday 25 June 2025 Time: 19:30. The purpose is to discuss and work through the challenges, opportunities and key attributes of a new incumbent to replace John Russell.

If you have any comments or queries ahead of this meeting please contact the churchwardens.
