We are delighted that several people from across the diocese will be licensed by Rt Revd Vivienne Faull, Bishop of Bristol as Licensed Lay Ministers (LLMS) at Bristol Cathedral tomorrow, Saturday 8 October at 10.30am at Bristol Cathedral. Everyone is welcome to attend.
LLMs have been trained and authorised to teach the faith, offer Christian leadership, and enable mission. They live out their faith in communities, churches and workplaces. The Church of England recognises them as ‘theologically educated lay people who can lead worship, preach, teach, work in mission and evangelism and do pastoral care’.
Tomorrow Bishop Viv will license the following people as Licensed Lay Members:-
Helen Aberdeen
Elizabeth Martin
Rebecca Meilton
Steven Purnell
Kevin Rice
Peter Rogers
Alison Rowe
Lisa Wakefield
Joy Webber
Karen Vermeersch
