Invitation to Prayer
Bishop Karen has issued an invitation across the diocese for everyone to join her in prayer as we prepare for the arrival of our new Bishop on 19 June.
She writes:
"The Novena (nine days of prayer), beginning on Saturday, and ending on the day of Bishop Stephen’s inaugural service, draws us personally into prayer, reflecting on those characteristics we as a diocese asked for in a new diocesan Bishop.
"Uniting in prayer at this juncture of our life together will, I believe, create a new openness to God in our hearts and homes, in our schools and churches. As we move on from Pentecost into ordinary time we place ourselves afresh at God’s disposal, trusting God for the future as we, together with Bishop Stephen, discern a new vision which honours the possibilities and realises the challenges of being the church in the 21st century."
