There seems to be no recorded history of our oak lectern. The colouring is similar to that on the pulpit. But more important than the lectern is the Bible which rests upon it. Lessons (Lections-selected readings) from the Bible are read at services throughout the year. Usually lessons in this church are read from modern translations of the Bible. (NRSV)

The round table near the Lectern was made during the 1950s as a project by a member of the Rover Scout movement and donated to the church when scouting was re-organised and the Rover Scouts (18 - 25 year olds) disbanded.

 

 

On the wall behind the lectern are the memorials to the men of Flitwick who died during the two World Wars.
