Local artist Hayley Fern is well known by many for her ambitious project to draw every church building in the Diocese of Leicester. Her first solo exhibition is now on display at Coalville C.A.N. until 19 August 2024, featuring nature inspired paintings alongside a selection of her church drawings.
The Church of the Martyrs in Leicester have found a great way to casually, and rather comfortably, connect with its neighbours this summer through ‘Sofa Chat’.
During the last few months our Bishops have been busy baptising and confirming candidates the diocese wide. In June and July, many of our worshipping communities welcomed and witnessed members of their church families taking the next step on their faith journeys.

We are holding an Eco Church Conversations Day on Saturday, September 14 from 10am – 2pm, at Holy Trinity Church in Leicester. It’s open to anyone, of any age, and all denominations are welcome to come and join in the fun.
