SUMMARY:Exploring Chaplaincy course
DESCRIPTION:Have you every wondered about being a chaplain? \n \nThese days there are chaplains in all sorts of places\, not just in hospitals and prisons. There are chaplains in primary schools\, GP surgeries\, town centres\, workplaces\, care homes\, law courts\, and even racecourses. You might be able to think of a possible chaplaincy opportunity near you. \nSome chaplains are paid\, but many are volunteers\, giving perhaps just one afternoon a week. Some are ordained\, but many are lay people. You don’t have to be an expert in anything to be a chaplain. You don’t need to be a super confident evangelist. You just need to be able to come alongside other people where they are\, showing God’s love through your listening and your care. \nExploring Chaplaincy is a course for people who want to think about this often-overlooked ministry. Could it be for you? Might there be an opportunity to develop chaplaincy from your church\, in your parish? The course is both for people who are already involved in chaplaincy and also for those just beginning to consider the possibility. \n  \nThe six meetings of the course will cover: \n\n What is a chaplain? What is distinctive about chaplaincy\n Don’t just do something  The importance of presence\n The cloak of compassion  Pastoral care and being prophetic\nTwo ears and one mouth  Listing to people\, listening to place\n Say one for me  The spirituality of chaplaincy\n Where we you go from here?  First steps\, support\, and supervision\n\nThe course is free. \nIt will run from Wednesday 14 January to Wednesday 25 February (with a break on 18 February) between 7.15pm – 9.15pm\, meeting at Francis Close Hall in Cheltenham. \nTo access the booking form before 14 January please click here \nFor more information please contact Simon Witcombe switcombe@glos.ac.uk

SUMMARY:Run the Race Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Therefore\, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses\, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely\, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us\, looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith\, who for the sake of the joy that was set before him endured the cross\, disregarding its shame\, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.  \nHebrews 12:1-2  \nHow do we run the race with endurance\, not falling into trying\, but rather training? \nWhat would it mean to make choices that allow us to flourish\, rest\, be more creative\, and joyful?  \nAs I have listened to felt needs around the Diocese\, how we are to manage our time\, make good choices about what to do and\, probably more importantly\, what not to do\, has come up all over the place. Run the race seeks to offer support into that.  \nThis is not so much a training day\, more led retreat. \nIn it there will be time to discern priorities\, get things in the diary that give us life [yes\, really\, bring your diary – let’s do this!]\, be realistic about what needs to go\, find space for that thing you’ve wanted to do for ages… above all\, to be reminded by God that you are beloved\, and don’t need to do anything to earn God’s love. \nTo book your place please click here. \nLed by: \nKate Stacey\, Collaborative Ministry Lead: Lifelong learning \nThe Revd Kate Stacey leads on the development of an innovative and collaborative approach to ensuring all ministries\, licensed\, lay and ordained grow and flourish.  Kate develops and delivers the CMD programme for everyone. \n  \n  \n  \nBecca Faal\, Strategic Lead for Safeguarding Training & Learning \nBecca is the lead for all safeguarding training and learning. Becca ensures training is delivered to a high standard within the national CofE framework. \n

You just need to be able to come alongside other people where they are\, showing God’s love through your listening and your care. \nExploring Chaplaincy is a course for people who want to think about this often-overlooked ministry. Could it be for you? Might there be an opportunity to develop chaplaincy from your church\, in your parish? The course is both for people who are already involved in chaplaincy and also for those just beginning to consider the possibility. \n  \nThe six meetings of the course will cover: \n\n What is a chaplain? What is distinctive about chaplaincy\n Don’t just do something  The importance of presence\n The cloak of compassion  Pastoral care and being prophetic\nTwo ears and one mouth  Listing to people\, listening to place\n Say one for me  The spirituality of chaplaincy\n Where we you go from here?  First steps\, support\, and supervision\n\nThe course is free. \nIt will run from Wednesday 14 January to Wednesday 25 February (with a break on 18 February) between 7.15pm – 9.15pm\, meeting at Francis Close Hall in Cheltenham. \nYou can apply for a place on the course here. \nFor more information please contact Simon Witcombe switcombe@glos.ac.uk

SUMMARY:Thriving Church
DESCRIPTION:  \nWe have an exciting day coming up on 31 May at Brimscombe Mill\, engaging with the question I hear most often\, in myriad different ways; ‘how can we help our church thrive?’ \nWe will be exploring this with +Rachel in prayer\, with Carrie Myers [National lead on lay ministry] and with George Ling [author of Seven Sacred Spaces] as well as input from Grace Network and the Mission and Ministry Team. The whole day will be based around our Deaneries\, so that the thinking and learning we do can be relational and specific to context. Of course\, there will be delicious coffee and food from Long Table too! \n  \nThere are a handful of spaces left in a couple of our Deanery groups to be part of this significant day in the life of our Diocese. If you would be interested\, please contact Kate Stacey as soon as possible. \n  \n  \nKate Stacey Collaborative Lead: Life Long Learning\nCarrie Myers National Lead on Lay Ministry

SUMMARY:Cancelled: GoodWill Event
DESCRIPTION:Please note\, this event has been cancelled. Please email Lisa-Jayne for more information.  \nHave you got questions about Wills\, Probate & Power of Attorneys? Have you got no idea how to plan or pay for a funeral? Concerned about the eco nature of your death? Want to know about ‘Swedish Death Cleaning’? Slightly concerned your cat might eat you if you die alone? (no seriously!) \nWe’ll tackle all this and more at our ‘GoodWill’ event. \nThey say that there are two things in life that are inevitable\, death and taxes. However\, it has been proven by large corporations and a smattering of celebrities and MPs that taxes can be avoided; death\, on the other hand\, is a 100% guarantee. Why\, then\, is it still such a taboo topic? \nAt this event you’ll hear from a funeral director\, a solicitor\, a death education specialist and others in the industry and you’ll be able to ask any questions you may have about anything from funeral planning to leaving a bequest to your church\, whatever you want to know\, we’ll have the answers. \nCome along for a surprisingly light and informative event\, we promise it won’t be weird! \n  \nLisa- Jayne Lewis – Stewardship and Giving Advisor \nLisa-Jayne helps church leaders to think about how they can preach and teach about money\, how churches can find ways to increase their income\, find grants and think about regular giving and  financial stewardship as part of our Christian discipleship.

SUMMARY:Run the Race
DESCRIPTION:Therefore\, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses\, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely\, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us\, looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith\, who for the sake of the joy that was set before him endured the cross\, disregarding its shame\, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.  \nHebrews 12:1-2  \nAre you a New Years Resolution person? All those great decisions and good intentions… it’s not that they are a bad thing\, right?  \nHow do we run the race with endurance\, not falling into trying\, but rather training? \nWhat would it mean to make choices at the beginning of the New Year that allow us to flourish\, rest\, be more creative\, and joyful?  \nAs I have listened to felt needs around the Diocese in these first six months\, how we are to manage our time\, make good choices about what to do and\, probably more importantly\, what not to do\, has come up all over the place. Run the race seeks to offer support into that.  \nThis is not so much a training day\, more led retreat. \nIn it there will be time to discern priorities\, get things in the diary that give us life [yes\, really\, bring your diary – let’s do this!]\, be realistic about what needs to go\, find space for that thing you’ve wanted to do for ages… above all\, to be reminded by God that you are beloved\, and don’t need to do anything to earn God’s love. \nTo book your place please click here. \nLed by: \nKate Stacey\, Collaborative Ministry Lead: Lifelong learning and Becca Faal\, Strategic Lead for Safeguarding Training & Learning. \nThe Revd Kate Stacey leads on the development of an innovative and collaborative approach to ensuring all ministries\, licensed\, lay and ordained grow and flourish.  Kate develops and delivers the CMD programme for everyone. \n  \n  \n  \nBecca is the lead for all safeguarding training and learning. Becca ensures training is delivered to a high standard within the national CofE framework. \n  \n

SUMMARY:GoodWill Event
DESCRIPTION:Have you got questions about Wills\, Probate & Power of Attorneys? Have you got no idea how to plan or pay for a funeral? Concerned about the eco nature of your death? Want to know about ‘Swedish Death Cleaning’? Slightly concerned your cat might eat you if you die alone? (no seriously!) \nWe’ll tackle all this and more at our ‘GoodWill’ event. \nThey say that there are two things in life that are inevitable\, death and taxes. However\, it has been proven by large corporations and a smattering of celebrities and MPs that taxes can be avoided; death\, on the other hand\, is a 100% guarantee. Why\, then\, is it still such a taboo topic? \nAt this event you’ll hear from a funeral director\, a solicitor\, a death education specialist and others in the industry and you’ll be able to ask any questions you may have about anything from funeral planning to leaving a bequest to your church\, whatever you want to know\, we’ll have the answers. \nCome along for a surprisingly light and informative event\, we promise it won’t be weird! \nThis workshop will be running on three different dates in three different locations. Please choose the one that is most convenient to you. \nRefreshment will be included. \nClick here to book this event. \nLisa- Jayne Lewis – Stewardship and Giving Advisor \nLisa-Jayne helps church leaders to think about how they can preach and teach about money\, how churches can find ways to increase their income\, find grants and think about regular giving and  financial stewardship as part of our Christian discipleship.
