Welcome to Canterbury Diocese
Canterbury Diocese is the oldest diocese in England, stretching from Maidstone to Thanet, the Isle of Sheppey to the Romney Marsh. We have 350 miles of coastline with historic ports and seaside resorts, alongside rural communities, market towns and commuter-belt urban developments. Affluent areas often sit alongside pockets of major deprivation, offering an exciting and challenging mission context.
At the heart of all we do is a vision of transformation for ourselves and our communities: no one can encounter God and remain unchanged. In the Diocese of Canterbury, we want to increasingly become a Christian community transformed through encounter with Christ, growing and overflowing to transform and bless the families, homes and communities we serve: Changed Lives, Changing Lives.

Please pray with us today. We are currently in interregnum but are really excited that the recruitment process is almost underway. We are praying for the right person to be sent to us. We are also excited that we are forging closer links with the PCC of our partner benefice of Holy Trinity Milton.
We give thanks for our Thursday Morning Prayer and the Fun in The Forge, (a coffee morning which usually incorporates a game or quiz).
Please pray for our 2 candidates who will be confirmed on the 5th of September. And we ask for prayers as we plan a START programme with other churches in the deanery.
Our hopes are to restart a regular family worship service and to build our congregation. Please pray with us and give thanks for all of the above.
