Bishop of Chichester to attend Christian LGBT conference in Brighton
The leader of the Church of England in Sussex will attend an LGBT conference in Brighton this weekend.
Dr Martin Warner, the Bishop of Chichester, has agreed to attend the Lesbian and Gay Christian Movement’s annual conference on Saturday 20 April at the Brighthelm Centre.
Bishop Martin will deliver a short message and take questions from the floor.
Keith Sharpe, of LGBT campaign group Changing Attitude Sussex, said: “This is the first time that a senior bishop in the Church of England has addressed a major national conference of gay and lesbian people and, as such, it represents a watershed moment in the church’s relations with the LGBT community.”
