The Arthur Rank Centre Rural Ministry Course

Offa House Offchurch Leamington Spa

Tuesday 4 November - Thursday 6 November
Offa House Offchurch Leamington Spa
Three day residential course designed for lay and ordained ministers entering a rural appointment for the first time.

The Arthur Rank Centre holds residential courses twice a year for those who are new to ministry in rural areas.  Rural ministry is a specialist ministry for which particular insights and skills are required and the social context is markedly different from urban or suburban ones.  The aim of the course is to build confidence in the participants' ability to exercise ministry in rural contexts.  Amoung the many issues explored are Partnership of church and community, Rural mission and theology and Patterns of workship, service and evangelism.  A month before the course, you will be sent further information with preparatory work for you to do.
