Bishop Rose Hudson-Wilkin: The Girl from Montego Bay
Bishop Rose Hudson-Wilkin: The Girl from Montego Bay
7:00pm, Monday 24th of November, The Hearth Queens Park
From a childhood in Jamaica to the heart of the British establishment, The Rt Revd Rose Hudson-Wilkin, CD, MBE, has lived a life defined by courage, conviction and change. Britain's first black woman bishop, the first woman to serve as Chaplain to the Speaker of the House of Commons and now Bishop of Dover, Bishop Rose has spent over three decades tackling racism and sexism in the Church and reimagining faith as a force for justice in modern society.
Join us for an evening with one of the most inspiring and outspoken voices in the Church of England as Bishop Rose reflects on her extraordinary journey into the priesthood, the women who have shaped and strengthened her along the way, and how her faith has evolved through moments of triumph and resistance.
From carrying the golden paten at the coronation of King Charles III to chairing the Church’s Commission for Racial Justice, Bishop Rose continues to speak uncomfortable truths with warmth, wit and fearlessness.
This event will explore what it means to lead with faith and fight for equity in turbulent times.
The event will end with an audience Q&A and then stick around for drinks and debriefing.
