In this week's video, Archdeacon Nikki reflects on failure, what it means and how we should embrace it.

Bishop John's Lent Appeal 2023

Bishop John’s Lent Appeal in 2023 will be for the Anglican Diocese of Peru. As a country, Peru has had a very turbulent few years. It had one of the world’s highest Covid mortality rates and has experienced considerable political unrest. Strict lockdowns and the financial implications have had a major impact on the Anglican Church. Paying stipends has been difficult, leading to many clergy having to have additional jobs. These pressures have naturally limited what can be done in terms of ministry and mission in poor areas experiencing multiple problems. Our support helps them in these difficult times.
