Catholic and Anglican Bishops have met in Liverpool for a two-day joint meeting that began on 1 February with a Service of Midday Prayer in the city’s Catholic Cathedral, the Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King.
The bishops then took part in a ‘Fraternal Pilgrimage Walk’ down Hope Street – the famous road that links the Metropolitan Cathedral and Liverpool’s Anglican Cathedral pausing at the Sheppard-Worlock memorial.
The memorial comprises of two face-to-face sculptures of two of the city’s much-loved bishops.
Archbishop Derek Worlock and his Anglican counterpart Bishop David Sheppard forged a long-lasting, genuine friendship based on working together to serve the Common Good.
