How has Living Faith inspired you in your local setting?

We'd like to follow up the Living Faith DVD with

  • stories
  • videos
  • interviews

that demonstrate how parishes in our diocese are focusing their work on the five Living Faith principles.

If you've got a story, activity or event that we could cover please tell the parish development adviser for your area.

Sustaining the Sacred Centre

This is about encouraging and enabling clergy and lay people to deepen their enjoyment of God, and to recognize God's presence in everyday life.

On this page we will highlight stories from around the diocese that illustrate this aspect of Living Faith.  If you would like us to feature an event or initiative your parish if running do let us know.
