2024 was an incredible year for the Diocese of Manchester. Join us as we reflect on some of the accomplishments we’ve achieved together as a diocese.
Bishop David shares his message for the Feast of Epiphany, reflecting on the challenges the Church faced in 2024 and reinforcing his commitment to safeguarding. He sets out his hopes for the years ahead that centre around our four themes of Growing Younger, Developing Missional Leaders, Church Planting and Revitalisation and Parish Renewal.
Since Christmas Day, we have had the pleasure of sharing a series of heartfelt reflections from a diverse group of clergy and lay people from across our diocese. These reflections, thoughtfully filmed in front of the beautiful Christmas tree at Manchester Cathedral, were designed to capture the spirit and themes of the Christmas season. Each short film highlighted a unique aspect of this special time of year, offering messages of hope, joy, peace, and love to inspire and uplift our community.
