Bishop of Bedford
The Bishop of Bedford is the Rt Revd Richard Atkinson. He was consecrated on 17 May 2012 at St Paul's Cathedral and welcomed to the Diocese in a Service at St Paul's Church, Bedford, on 19 May 2012.
Upon the announcement of his appointment in March, Bishop Richard said," I am looking forward enormously to getting to know the diversity and depth of the communities of Bedfordshire and Luton. I am passionate about the Church's capacity to change all lives and communities for the better. I am enthusiastic to enable and equip the Church to reach out in love and service to our contemporary world, and committed to speaking up for the marginalised, poor and vulnerable. I pay tribute to the work being done all over the Diocese of St Albans, but especially in Bedfordshire and Luton."
