Our future ordinands meet at Manchester Cathedral

This weekend, our Petertide Ordinations will take place at Manchester Cathedral, with a total of 35 people being ordained in the diocese.

Ahead of their ordinations, the future ordinands were invited to the Cathedral for their ordination rehearsals, as well as a meet-and-greet lunch with the newly consecrated Bishop of Bolton, The Rt Revd Dr Matthew Porter, and other senior clergy.

We’ve attached a number of photos from the lunch below. See the full Flickr albums here: Priests and Deacons
