Roger Morris, Archdeacon of Worcester said: ‘We want to equip, not just clergy but, all people so they can participate wholeheartedly in HOPE 2014.  As a diocese we have been in consultation with every parish about what they are doing. This HOPE 2014 initiative comes at just the right time for our diocese.’
