The Reverend Anna Matthews 15 July 1978 – 8 March 2023
Our much-loved vicar, Anna Matthews, died on 8 March 2023.
She was the incumbent at St Bene’t’s for ten years and we continue to give thanks to God for her inspirational ministry amongst us and dedicated service to God, to our diverse community at St Bene't's, to people who have been marginalised and to the life of the church nationally.
We pray that we can build on her legacy and that it will continue to inspire us to walk with Christ in all we do.
