150 young people aged between 16 and 25 have joined the Bishop of Chelmsford, Rt Revd Stephen Cottrell, for ”˜Time for Youth’, a conference about the future of the Church.
They discussed the kind of Church God wants, the themes of Transforming Presence ”“ Strategic Priorities for the Diocese of Chelmsford and whether God is calling them into some sort of ministry in the Church.
Bishop Stephen told the young people: “The Church is you. If you find the Church difficult, make a difference to it yourself.”
