This Advent, open the door to ministry.
Across the Diocese of Bristol, Licensed Lay Ministers (LLMs) are making a profound impact; leading worship, offering pastoral care, and sharing the love of Christ in schools, workplaces, and communities. They are volunteers, yet their contribution is invaluable.
Why give?
- 154 LLMs currently serve across our Diocese
- Together, they give over 1,200 hours each week to further the Church’s mission
- It costs around £5,000 to train each new LLM
- It takes £253 a year to sustain their ministry
Your gift helps us train and support the next generation of LLMs to follow Jesus, serve others, and transform communities.
Meet the Ministers
We will be sharing a story of a different LLM every day of Advent in our digital calendar below! If you feel inspired by our LLMs stories, please consider donating to support their ministry.
