A glorious day for the Ordination of Priests

On Saturday 18 June, 12 men and women were ordained as priests at Chester Cathedral. The sun was out in full splendour which made for some great photos of the ordinands in the Bishop's garden and after the service, outside of the cathedral.

Please hold the newly ordained priests in your prayers as they go forward to do God's work in our diocese.
