THE BISHOP OF WORCESTER AT MALVERN

There was a crowded congregation at Holy Trinity Church on Sunday afternoon, when the Bishop of Worcester, administered the rite of confirmation to over 100 candidates.......The Bishop gave two impressive addresses. He pointed out that religious privilege could not be separated from religious responsibility. In the reawakening that would come after the war they must get rid of all insincerity in religion, and they would have to come out and show the same seriousness in religion as they were in everything else.
