Formerly know as Regional Vocations Days, the Discipleship and Vocations Leaflet says that these days offer...
An opportunity to join with others across the region to consider whether God might be calling you to lay or ordained ministry in the Methodist Church, and if so, what that might involve.”

They are for all those considering whether God may be calling them to lay or ordained ministry in the Methodist Church.

What are we aiming for in these days?
We aim to provide an informative, reflective, prayerful and encouraging day which enables participants to move on to the next steps appropriate to their journey of vocational discernment.

Our Objectives?
  • To reflect with others on the calling of God in general
  • To learn more about the different ministries that exist in the Methodist Church
  • To meet presbyters, deacons & lay people who have come to their particular role in recent times & learn from their diverse experiences
  • To identify and discover more about the various routes for further learning and exploration
  • For those considering ordained ministry this includes detailed information about the candidating process
  • To enable sharing, mutual encouragement and worship as all reflect on the ongoing, lifelong task of discerning God’s will and purpose for our lives.

Calverley's Young Potters

The children of the Charlie Wesley Craft and Cooking Club, and a couple of Dads too, turned their hand to pottery, when we created the animals that went into the Ark. The figures were air-dried then fired to bisque, and then they were painted and glazed and re-fired. How do you like the results?
