The Friends are people who support the Diocese in Europe and share in its life and work.

 

By their interest

  • in discovering something of its history and its work
  • in visiting its chaplaincies whenever possible
  • in talking about it to others and introducing new Friends
  • in coming to the annual reunion and any other activities
  • by reading news on the diocesan website

 

By their prayers

God bless our Diocese,
Inspire its worship,
Sanctify its people and
Make each of its churches and chaplaincies
A home for all who need or seek You.
Amen.

 

By their gifts

Friends make regular donations (£30 annually is suggested, but many pay rather more).

The proceeds are used to support a wide range of diocesan projects for which funds are short or are not available from other sources.

 

In return

  • There is an annual reunion, usually in London, consisting of a service followed by a reception: this is an opportunity for the Friends to meet each other, the Bishops and other clergy and lay people from around the Diocese.
