St Edward s Church in Romford has appointed the Rev David Simpson (RN) as its next vicar.
Rev Simpson - expected to be fully operational in the parish by March 2021 - will come to St Edward s after many years with the Royal Navy Chaplaincy.
He replaces the Rev Mike Power, who departed in January.
Churchwarden Johanna Hardy said: The vicar of St Edward s is also by virtue of office the Vicar of Romford, with St Edward s being the civic and parish church of Romford. Therefore it is an important appointment within the diocese and the community.
