The President of the Methodist Conference, the Revd Gill Newton, and the Vice President, Deacon Kerry Scarlett, share their support for King Charles after the announcement of his cancer diagnosis:
“On behalf of the Methodist Church in Britain, we offer our thoughts and prayers for King Charles and his family after he was diagnosed with cancer. We appreciate his openness and willingness to share news of his health and hope that it will encourage more people to attend routine screening and health checks when invited by their GP surgery.’
As we have just marked World Cancer Day, we are also praying for everyone who has just been diagnosed or is suffering from a life-changing illness, their families and everyone working for the NHS who helps and cares for patients.”
