Reverend Jemma Sander-Heys is moving to her new post in Battyeford, as priest in charge at Christ the King. Her last service in Oakworth parish was on Sunday 2nd August 2026, and a lovely wedding on Saturday 8th August. We wish the family well in their pastures new and give them thanks for their ministry, friendship and tremendous sense of fun over the last 4 years. They will be missed.
