Happy Easter from the Diocese of London! Welcome also to our Easter e-newsletter.
The Bishop of London has given a series of lectures on the subject "Missing God" as part of London's Internet Church's Lent programme. Visit www.londoninternetchurch.com to view these.
The texts of many of the Bishop’s sermons and addresses, including four given in Holy Week and Easter, are available through the Diocese of London’s website.
The Chapter of St Paul’s is delighted at the appointment of the Right Reverend Graeme Paul Knowles as the Cathedral’s new Dean and greatly looks forward to his installation in the next few months.
Currently the Bishop of Sodor and Man, Bishop Knowles comes to St Paul’s with a wealth of Cathedral experience, having served as Precentor of Portsmouth Cathedral 1981-87, Archdeacon of Portsmouth 1993-99 and Dean of Carlisle 1999-2003.
London's Church Leaders have joined forces with the Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone, to launch a new environmental guide to help the capital's churches become greener.
The guide gives practical tips on how churches can reduce their energy consumption and their carbon footprint. It includes advice on everything from basic ways of reducing heating bills, such as fitting insulation and installing energy efficient lighting, through to introducing car sharing schemes for church services, setting up recycling programmes and encouraging local children to learn about the environment and take an active role in protecting it.
‘For Creed and Creation’ is available to download from the Mayor of London’s website.
