Called to Preach?
A Taster Session
for the Local Preacher Training Course in
West Yorkshire and Surrounding Areas
starting this Autumn
will be held
on Saturday 4th October
at  Trinity Methodist Church
Duckett Street, Skipton, BD23 2EJ
from 10.30 am to 12.30 pm
(Drinks available from 10 am)
The course is a District alternative to Faith and Worship, it is user friendly, well supported and assessed by worship portfolios.
Some people feel sure of their 'call to preach' but for others the first steps are very tentative. It is a process of discernment that is shared by the Church.
This day will provide an opportunity to look at the course outline, ask questions and hear from participants on the current course.
