Lex McDonnell will be ordained deacon by the Bishop of Manchester on Sunday 3 July and begin her ordained ministry in Wythenshawe. We caught up with Lex in Home Café in St James & Emmanuel Church, Didsbury to hear her ordination story.
"When I was a toddler, I used to do services for my teddies and for my parents and used to give out communion and do a collection... I always knew that at some point in my life I was going to go into some kind of ordination."
