The Church of England from the Yorkshire coast to the A1, and between the Rivers Humber and Tees.

Who We Are
The people and places that make up the Diocese of York

Our Vision
As the church of Jesus Christ, we have two stories to tell: the story of Jesus’s life, death and resurrection; and the continuing story of what Jesus has done through his church, including what he is doing in our lives now by the power of the Spirit. That is Living Christ’s Story.
Our Strategy
To become more like Christ; to reach out to people who do not yet know Christ; to grow churches of missionary disciples which are younger and more diverse; to transform our structures and finances.
