Welcome to 91Ӱ��

91Ӱ�� is the oldest diocese in England, stretching from Maidstone to Thanet, the Isle of Sheppey to the Romney Marsh. We have 350 miles of coastline with historic ports and seaside resorts, alongside rural communities, market towns and commuter-belt urban developments. Affluent areas often sit alongside pockets of major deprivation, offering an exciting and challenging mission context.

At the heart of all we do is a vision of transformation for ourselves and our communities: no one can encounter God and remain unchanged. In the Diocese of 91Ӱ��, we want to increasingly become a Christian community transformed through encounter with Christ, growing and overflowing to transform and bless the families, homes and communities we serve: Changed Lives, Changing Lives.

The Rt Revd Rose Hudson-Wilkin
Bishop of Dover

The Most Reverend Sarah Mullally
The Archbishop of 91Ӱ��

Join us in prayer for Praying Together the Season of Creation: Living Water

Creator God, help us to respect water as the precious gift it is – water that is essential for sustaining all life on earth. At a time when many people in the world do not have access to clean water, help us to be grateful for the water we have and not to be wasteful in its use. Amen.

Prayer written by Teresa Bennet

Today, lets ponder Ezekiel’s incredible vision, and commit to caring for our planet…

Swarms of living creatures will live wherever the river flows. There will be large numbers of fish, because this water flows there and makes the salt water fresh; so where the river flows everything will live. Fruit trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river. Their leaves will not wither, nor will their fruit fail. Every month they will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will serve for food and their leaves for healing. Ezekiel 47: 9, 12 (NIV)

The theme for the Season of Creation (1st Sept to 4th Oct) this year is ‘Living Water.’
