Bishop Hugh Nelson
This month we are preparing to welcome Hugh Nelson as our new Bishop of
Worcester. Previously Bishop of St Germans in the Diocese of Truro, Bishop
Hugh brings with him a deep commitment to community, discipleship, and
faithful service.
Ordained in 2008 after many years living in the L’Arche community in London,
Hugh’s ministry has been rooted in inclusion and shared life. His experience
spans rural parishes, diocesan leadership, and his ongoing role as Bishop to the
Armed Forces, where he offers pastoral care to chaplains across the services.
Lord, we thank you for calling your servant Hugh to be Bishop of Worcester;
sustain him by your love, strengthen him in faith, encourage him in hope, and
grant him the needful gifts of grace as he begins his ministry among us.
