New Archbishop of Canterbury
On the 25 March 2026, the Most Revd and Rt Hon Dame Sarah Mullally was installed as the 106th Archbishop of Canterbury at a beautiful service held in Canterbury Cathedral.
As she begins this new chapter of ministry, please join us as we lift her up in prayer with this blessing from The Church of England.
Almighty God, you call your Church in every age to proclaim the gospel of Christ: look with mercy upon your servant Sarah, and grant that, as deacon, she may care for those in need, as priest, sustain us with the ministry of word and sacrament, and as bishop, guard the faith and build up the body of Christ in holiness.
Give her wisdom and kindness that as archbishop, she may promote unity, seek truth, and lead us in the way of righteousness and peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
