Lay Readers Licensed at Gloucester Cathedral

It was a great joy to welcome a new group of Lay ministers, licensed by Bishop Robert at Gloucester Cathedral over the weekend.

Readers minister in a variety of different situations, from parish to workplace chaplaincy, and bring an extraordinary range of gifts into ministry: preaching the Gospel in worship, leading study groups, assisting in pastoral ministry, connecting a world of work and social need with our worship, drawing on insights from daily life and many realms of experience.

Plus, they’re awesome.
