Ignite is church, but it’s probably not church as most people know it, because (in the main) most people – especially those living in our marginalised and social deprived communities – aren’t coming to traditional church. So, we try to be different and relevant, while still communicating the Good News of the Gospel.
The Media and Engagement team supports the work of our diocese and its deaneries and parishes with communication and engagement. We are the first point of contact for media enquiries about our diocese and the Bishop of Dover and help our parishes with their media engagement. Please get in touch if you need our advice or to let us know about your good news stories.
In our diocese, we are passionate about supporting lay and ordained ministers to discern and fulfil their calling - and about helping them to grow and develop in that calling throughout their life. Our team have a range of specialist skills and experience and are here to support you. Members of the team can be contacted via Diocesan House on 01227 459401 or using their email addresses.
