Young people and bishops to talk faith ahead of Lambeth

Tuesday, June 24, 2008

The Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu, and the Bishop of Leicester, the Rt Rev Tim Stevens, will head a delegation of archbishops and bishops from all over the world coming to Leicester ahead of the Lambeth Conference.

They will hear the hopes and aspirations of a group of over 40 young people drawn from across the worldwide Anglican Communion as part of the Diocese of Leicester's programme before the Lambeth Conference.

The consultation event, organised by the Diocese of Leicester’s Department of Youth Ministry with help from The Children’s Society, will give the invited young people a chance to air their views on issues of faith, life and power, and influence the bishops of the Anglican Communion’s discussions. the rest
