Bishop Julian welcomes you to our Diocesan website
"Welcome to the Diocese of Blackburn, the Church of England in Lancashire. As a Diocese we are working with our parishes to deliver 'Vision 2026: Healthy Churches Transforming Communities"
Talk to God in prayer (includes Blackburn Diocese Prayers)
Prayer puts God at the centre of our lives and allows us to start a conversation with Him. We can be forgiven for the things that have gone wrong as we can always start again with God.
