The Reverend Stephen Griffiths, who has served as the team rector at All Saints Church in Oakham, Rutland, and the surrounding villages since 2018, has moved to Shropshire to work with the Bishop of Hereford.
After seven years of dedicated service in the Oakham and Rutland area, Reverend Stephen Griffiths has accepted a new position with the Bishop of Hereford. This move marks a significant transition for both Reverend Griffiths and the local community he served. His new role will involve working directly with the Bishop in the Diocese of Hereford, which covers the county of Herefordshire and parts of Shropshire.
Since taking up the role of team rector in 2018, Reverend Griffiths led the team ministry at All Saints Church, a prominent landmark in Oakham. His leadership extended beyond the main church to include several churches in the surrounding villages, fostering a strong sense of community and collaboration. During his tenure, he was a central figure in local life, participating in community events and providing spiritual guidance to parishioners. His departure is a loss for the parish, but his contributions to the community will be remembered.
