In a statement on the Diocese website announcing their engagement in October 2017, Bishop John said: "To have found love again is a most wonderful thing and I feel immensely blessed."

Please join me in praying for H-J and John @BishopWorcester as they are married later today.
Much thanksgiving for treasured memories,
together with hope for the future,
as we pray that God blesses them both by adding his 'YES' to their 'YES'. pic.twitter.com/2fzQsGe7Sx

Bishop John and HJ first met about twenty years ago and the two families have been friends ever since.

The diocese said HJ has two sons "who get on very well with Bishop John's children".

Denise died in 2014 at the age of 51 after a year's battle with cancer.

A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.

Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.

For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.

Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
