Farewell to Bishop Stephen
A message from Diocesan Secretary, Canon Paul Evans
I am sure you will be aware of recent announcements that Bishop Stephen will be moving permanently from Ely to the Diocese of Lincoln in the summer of this year.  He has served this Diocese for thirteen years with love and generosity and there will be a farewell service for him in Ely Cathedral on Sunday 16 July 2023 at 4.30pm to which you are warmly invited. This will be an occasion to thank God for Bishop Stephen and his ministry.
 
It will also be the occasion for a presentation to Bishop Stephen to express our gratitude. If you or your church would like to contribute to this, you are welcome to use the preferred processes noted below, to arrive by 5 July at the latest :
