Why get ordained…in the Church of England…now?

 

Date: Saturday 30 January 2021, 10.00am-12.00noon
Location: Online, live on Zoom

What’s God laying on your heart about gospel ministry? Are you thinking about what he might be calling you to? In spite of Covid-19, economic downturn and challenges within the Church, God is still raising up workers for the harvest field.

So if you’re thinking about full time gospel ministry and considering, even in a very small way, ordination in the Church of England, why not join us for a morning to discuss these very questions: 

  • Why get ordained - at all?
  • Why get ordained - in the Church of England in particular?
  • Why get ordained - in the Church of England now, at this present time?

We greatly need more gospel-hearted, bible-believing ministers but we also need ministers who have been well-trained, who understand and embrace the historic doctrine of the Church of England and who are willing to roll up their sleeves and get stuck in - might this be you?"

It will be an interactive morning with opportunity for discussion and to ask your questions.

We’d love to help you as you discern the path God has for you.
