Lay Training

Foundations for Ministry is a lay training course for anyone who wants to find and grow in the ministry to which God is calling them.

Authorised Lay Ministry takes many different forms, but in general ALMs lead or establish a team of people working in an area of ministry and they also work to encourage and develop the gifts of others. Click here for more details.

Training for Eucharistic Assistants is detailed here.
