"Crossing the Chasm" Methodist Women in Britain


"Crossing the Chasm"
Annual Conference 12-14 April 2013
The Hayes Conference Centre, Swanwick, Derbyshire

This annual conference, formerly organised by Network, now MWiB, offers an excellent introduction to engagement with MWiB to women leaders in many areas of church life, particularly to those interested in creative spirituality and global social justice, in areas that affect women.

Our District’s MWiB group is keen to attract younger women be they under 50 or under 25 to consider this for the first time, and they are offering bursaries to help with the cost for such people.  They have been in touch with the 3Generate age group, and the current Youth President, Hayley Moss, but would also be grateful if you could think about possible women who would benefit.
