New Circuit Superintendent

Received 11 December

The Circuit Stewards are pleased to announce that the Rev Doreen Koffie-Williams will become the Superintendent of our Circuit from September 2026. She will have pastoral charge of The Square, Aley Green and Harlington Churches.

Doreen and her family came to visit us last Saturday. Following the visit, the Circuit Invitations Committee decided to issue an invitation to her to serve here, which she has accepted. This is, of course, subject to Conference. Doreen is a Minister currently serving in the Coventry and Nuneaton Circuit.

We look forward to working with her and welcoming her and family to Dunstable in the summer.

Please do keep them and all involved in the Stationing process in your prayers.
