Will NobleIn Pictures: London's Female Priests
Midweek Eucharist, St Stephen’s Church, Croydon with the Revd Canon Joyce Forbes
Women have been accepted into the priesthood by the Church of England for 25 years. To mark the anniversary, photographer Jim Grover captured images of 12 women priests in Southwark Diocese — at work in their churches and out in the community.
These images form the exhibition Here Am I, at Oxo Gallery for a short run from the end of May.
