SUMMARY:Eco Chaplaincy training - is God calling you?

The role is supported by the Diocesan Environment Officer and Net Zero Carbon Adviser. \nThe next training course takes place over Wednesdays 17 & 24 June\, from 1:30 – 3:30pm in central Norwich. The training sessions will cover the theological context of our climate and biodiversity crises\, our missional response to them\, and how to signpost parishes to practical support on working towards net zero\, improving biodiversity and progressing through the Eco Church survey. \nFor a more details of what the role commitment and responsibilities are\, please see the role description HERE and/or contact Barbara.bryant@dioceseofnorwich.org 07876 634867 for a chat. \nYou’ll need to be able to commit to attending both dates\, but do not need to commit to the role until after training is completed. You will need to have the agreement of your parish priest/incumbent. Please contact Barbara if you would like to book onto the course.

SUMMARY:Youthscape Essentials East
DESCRIPTION:The Youthscape Essentials course is our training for all those involved or interested in being involved\, in youth ministry in your local church\, school or community. This is more than just a training course\, it’s formational.

You’re taking this course as a collective\, a team\, where you can share with and learn from each other\, growing in a community mindset– because God’s vision for the Church is not merely assorted individuals but one harmonious\, diverse family.\n\nThe course will be delivered in a hybrid style\, mixing local in person sessions with online sessions for the whole group\, allowing to explore your ministry as a local team whilst also being inspired by the stories from across the diocese!\n\nSo\, come and join this amazing journey\, invest in your ministry and your Christian discipleship\, and simply select the local hub that will work best for you!\n\nFor more information about the Youthscape Essentials course then visit www.youthscape.co.uk/yse/home
