About the Diocese
Flower Festivals
... across the Diocese of Derby
Many Christians celebrate and communicate about
their faith through the glory of flowers. Every year, Anglican
churches all over Derbyshire host flower festivals, and posters
are circulated at the end of March to all churches for display
on their noticeboards.
