"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.

Christian action – are you an active clicker?

Throughout the circuit, friends have been interested in various websites that I have recommended.   Anyone can look at them and act, sometimes with millions of others, to press for justice. That is what we should, as Jesus-shaped people, be doing.  www.avaaz.org obtains millions of signatures for world-important actions. www.350.org is active against the human-induced changes in our climate that are destroying Gods creation which we have in trust for our children. www.38degrees.org.uk is so named since 38 degrees is the angle at which an avalanche occurs on a mountain.  This organisation lobbies for an avalanche of support for the NHS etc. Please do have a look. Christians need to be active clickers too. John A, Baildon
