Ruth Mock has served happily as Vicar of St John's for the past seven years.  She feels sad to be leaving but she has been appointed as Canon for Mission and Learning at Peterborough Cathedral and will be moving early in the New Year before taking up her new position on 24 January 2027.

In January the Parochial Church Council (PCC) will begin the process of recruiting a new vicar for St John's.  A vacancy can last from nine months to several years, but St John's is in a good financial position and is a single parish benefice with one church for the new vicar to lead.  It is hoped that the transition can be made as short as possible.

We wish Ruth well in her new posting.
