Reflecting on Creation
In this Eco Diocese, a number of parishes are joining in wholeheartedly with the Season of Creation that runs from 1st September to St Francis Day (4th October) each year.
Serving a Holy Saviour
In a number of our parishes, many people seek to do more than attend services - they humbly offer their time and gifts, and hear the call of God as they do so.
Grateful thanks from the Sudans
Canon Dr Joseph Bilal of the Episcopal University in Juba sends us this message:
An "Impressionist" Wedding
Our ministry teams are busy catching up with weddings that were cancelled during lockdown, and even with just 30 people attending, they have proved memorable events.
Hospitality, friendship, and Creation
As an Eco Diocese, we treasure those who pioneer a gentler way of life - even if that means them holding their ground.
A Final Push
Our Aquadeacon is on the final stretch of her epic swim to raise money for a spinal injuries charity.
Prayerwalking Three Valleys
Pilgrimage is embedded in the rich history of Dorset and Wiltshire, with a number of routes criss-crossing our diocesan area, and new routes are being devised all the time.
The 'rule of 6'
New ‘rule of 6’ restrictions to help limit the spread of coronavirus have been announced.
Local Learning
Study is a key part of discipleship in this Diocese, whether at home, in a church study group, or on an accredited course from our ministry partners at Sarum College. For many people, this can be a crucial step on the road to licensed or ordained ministry.
Keeping Vigil for the Earth
The Church season of Creationtide runs from from 1st September to 4th October, with a theme this year of 'Jubilee for the Earth'. There have been a number of parish initiatives in this Diocese, including services for Climate Sunday, and some are joining in with wider initiatives.
