As England broke weather records with highs of 36.9¬įC, our Church of England churches and cathedrals offered a break from the extreme temperatures, proving that they really are #CoolChurches. Did you open your doors today?
Smile for the camera Archdeacon Fiona! The Iona Pilgrimage continues with lovely weather and talks going well. See Archdeacon Fiona reflecting near a Celtic Cross.
Are you part of a parish or interested in church buildings? If so, follow our dedicated church buildings page Diocese of Chichester, Church Buildings that was set up yesterday!

Our churches are increasingly exploring new ways of engaging with children, young people, and their families. Just to mention a few: Messy Church, Praise Parties, Sports and Chaplaincy in Schools.
