Laura Sykes

Hello, I'm Laura Sykes, editor of the Lay Anglicana website, the place to exchange news and views from the pews throughout the Anglican Communion.

Laura Sykes is a lifelong Anglican who has worshipped in every continent but Antarctica. She was a Lay Worship Leader in her local church from 2005-2010. Both experiences led her to the view that the laity needed a 'village well' to gather online and express their collective views to the Church.
