Around 200 people gathered at Manchester Cathedral on Thursday 19th March to conclude an uplifting and hope‑filled day across our diocese.

As we continue to deliver our vision we are committed to ensuring that all of our governance structures support parishes, chaplaincies and schools in their ministry.

Next week, listeners will tune in to a special series of BBC Daily Service broadcasts featuring local women clergy, alongside the voices of the Bolton Parish Church Choir, Bolton Junior Choir, and Sing My Soul Choral Scholars.

The Archbishop’s visit to Manchester on Thursday, 19th March has been shaped to reflect the diocese’s priorities of Parish Renewal, Growing Younger, Church Planting and Revitalisation, and Developing Missional Leaders.

St Peter’s Church in Levenshulme recently opened its doors as it hosted a well-attended hustings event.
