Who are we, as the Diocese of Chichester? We are the young and old, ordained and lay, the women and men who form the Church of England in Sussex. We are the disciples of Jesus Christ. The joys, hopes and sorrows of the world are our joy, hope and sorrow, too. But the mystery of the truth about life in all its fullness – that is the gift of Jesus Christ that we have received and are asked to share with all who are ready to receive it. We are, through baptism into him, a royal, priestly and prophetic people.
