Welcome To St Margaret’s

We are small dynamic church who welcomes everyone of every age and on every step of their Christian journey. We offer lots of activities and opportunities to explore faith in action. We are located just north of Luton in the village of Streatley.

We offer a traditional service with choir in Church at 9:30. We also have a more contemporary service at the Parish Centre at 11:15am. Both of these services have a Coffee and Fellowship time afterwards, which is a great time to get to know us. For those of you who love the Book of Common Prayer, we have a BCP service at 8am on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of each month.

We look forward to meeting with you and welcoming you to our church. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Dear Friends,
This is not a letter from the vicarage and until the vicarage is once again occupied by our priest your monthly Letter will be from different people.
Whilst the search for a new minister doesn’t officially start until the Vacancy Meeting on 12th March with Bishop Richard and Archdeacon Dave, the churchwardens have been working hard arranging the farewell party for Nigel, contacting ministers
to take our services at both the Church and Parish Centre, reviewing and retyping obvious changes to the Parish profile, bringing the Church Near You up to date, and making sure nothing slips through the cracks.
Everyone is welcome to the Vacancy Meeting which starts at 7:30 pm in the Parish Centre. Those present will be asked to provide their ideas, thoughts, and opinions on our strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, challenges, and our vision. These will be used to update the Parish profile. Also to be discussed will be the kind of minister we will be looking for. This meeting is where you can have your input in the process. Keech Hospice will also be asked for their input.
From this point on two elected representatives will handle the interests of the Parish. An advert will be posted on the Diocese website, Pathways (Church of England) and the Church Times. There is already notice on the Diocese website that a
vacancy is coming up for a priest and chaplain in Streatley.

After the closing date for applications, a shortlisting meeting happens then interviews take place. Both these meetings are attended by the Archdeacon, Bishop, Area/Rural Dean, and the Parish Reps.
A tentative timetable has been suggested by the Archdeacon’s office which is fairly tight but we will all work quickly to meet the deadlines and have a new minister in place as early as possible.
Thank you to those that have taken on additional responsibility during this time, in the absence of the Vicar the Churchwardens assume legal responsibility for the
Parish so your support is hugely appreciated.
In the meanwhile pray God sends us the right person quickly
With very best wishes,
Julia and Wendy
