Exciting new training opportunity for Children, Youth and Families Ministry

Thursday 12 September 2024, 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm

For anyone involved with Children, Youth and Families ministry in the Diocese of Gloucester.

More than an ideas factory, the ‘Introduction to Christian Ministry’ course is an opportunity to go deeper into your faith, learn more about the bible and ministry in a local learning community with the option to work towards a qualification.

Term time only. The course runs on Thursday evenings, with in person and online options, over one or two years.

Alongside the regular modules there will be five specific Saturday workshops (two online and three in person) to develop the key skills and perspective which underpin this specialist ministry.

 

MODULES: 

Preparing to Learn: Scripture, Prayer and Theology

Creating and Leading Worship

Introduction to the Bible

Mission and Evangelism

Pastoral Skills

ONLINE OPEN EVENING

Jo Wetherall and Barrie Voyce are hosting an open evening to introduce Sarah Brush, Director of CGH and Gloucester Lead Tutor, who will explore the course with you and respond to any questions.
