This morning the Bishop of Bedford and acting Bishop of St Albans announced that following an interview last November the Reverend Mike Stewart has been appointed Rector of Ampthill, Millbrook and Steppingley.

Mikes farewell service to the Elstow Team will be on Palm Sunday (29th March) in Elstow Abbey at 10:00am, which will be followed by a bring and share lunch and the Annual Parochial Church Meeting at 2.00pm.
