Mission and Ministry Conference 2013

Tim and Rachel would like to say thank you to all of you who came to Blackpool.

We had a great time at the Mission and Ministry Conference.

The Road Trip: One Van. Two Years. Every Uni Location. Loveyouruni.

In the eighteenth century John Wesley rode on horseback over 250,000 miles around the UK. He shared the gospel, encouraged the body of Christ and saw the nation changed.

Today in the twenty-first century, Miriam will drive over 10,000 miles in a VW camper van. She will visit every town and city with a university in the UK to catalyse a grass-roots movement amongst students, equip the church for mission and share the gospel with those she meets.

Vicars with 2 churches

Lichfield Diocese has been working with James Lawrence to look at the issues of Vicars with 2 churches. They have distinctive issues to deal with which are not the same as multiple churches. CPAS are running a day for our clergy in this situation on Thursday 19^th September at Shallowford House (Stone, Stafford) from 10am to 4pm. The day will led by Graham Archer, their Director of Ministry who has personal experience of leading two churches, accompanied by two clergy from Lichfield Diocese who have been working with CPAS on this.

We have ten places which I can offer to other Dioceses –a maximum of two people per Diocese, so that you can come and experience this to see if it is something you wish to repeat in your Diocese.
