Fr. Andy Richardson
Parish Priest
Father Andy was born and raised in Luton and worked as a Chemical Engineer prior to becoming a priest. Since his ordination to the priesthood in June 2008, Fr Andy previously served as the Assistant Priest in St Edward’s Parish, Kettering.
Fr Andy was initially appointed by Bishop Peter as Priest-in-Charge of our Parish from September 2012 in place of Fr David Barrett. Following a prolonged period of sick leave, Fr David decided to stand down as Parish Priest in December 2012. Bishop Peter subsequently appointed Fr Andy Richardson as our new Parish Priest.
Fr Emmanuel Okami
Assistant Priest
Fr Emmanuel has been temporarily assigned to the Parish to assist Fr Andy. It is the first time he has been out of his home country of Nigeria, so he has to settle into life in an English Parish and cope with our weather!
Deacon Marek Gajdus
Deacon Marek joined the parish to minister as a Deacon in April 2012.
