bath & wells: school of formation

models of ministry and learning opportunities

In 2006 the then diocesan Council for Ministry, now Ministry Forum produced a leaflet which outlined various potential ministries that might become part of parish, benefice or Local ministry Group life. The leaflet can be accessed here. Click here

In response to the ministries highlighted in the document, the School of Formation has begun forming training courses to help those who wish to pursue a vocation towards exercising them.

To enquire about these ministries, a person should normally first approach their incumbent and discuss the matter. If there is agreement to pursue possibilities, then training opportunities will be offered. A little more detail of the training courses will emerge in time and be posted below.
