One-year course

Mission Shaped Ministry

Mission Shaped Ministry is a one-year, part-time course that takes participants on a learning journey as part of a supportive community, training them for ministry in Fresh Expressions of church. It is a number of evening sessions, Saturdays and a residential weekend.

Those who come on mission shaped ministry tend to do so:

• As individuals and as teams
• As leaders and members, clergy and lay people, learning side by side
• As they prepare to start or have already started a Fresh Expression of church
• Because they want their existing church to be more mission shaped.

The Fresh Expressions website gives more details including a video.

The Mission Shaped Ministry has been running through 2011 and will be organized again in the near future. Contact Ben Edson, Tony Hardy or David Foster for details.
