New Bishop of Leeds – Consultation
As you probably knew Bishop Nick is retiring this year. The Diocese have begun a consultation into what sort of Bishop we would like next! You can fill in the online form with your thoughts.
If you want to think about it the questions are:
- What are your three hopes for the future of the church in your community?
- What three words describe the main skills and qualities the next bishop needs to have, to help us grow in confidence as a diocese?
- What is the one thing you want to say to the next Bishop of Leeds?
Greetings to you all from South East Asia.
At the beginning of June Ian and I had to make a very difficult decision. We are returning to the UK at the end of July! In 2019 Ian noticed a small lump on his left arm, which was diagnosed as an AVM (a bunch of blood vessels that are bigger than they should be). In the past few months it has grown significantly and is beginning to be uncomfortable.
Doctors at the international hospital here and from the UK agree that we need to return to the UK sooner rather than later – it needs to be treated as an urgent matter. Because of the uncertainty of what treatment will be needed, and the timescales involved, we believe that it is best to leave.
This is as much a shock to us as it is to you and those we’re working with here, but we are trusting that Father God has us, and those we’re leaving, in his hands. Goodbyes will be very difficult. Please be praying.
Our love
Ian and Sue
