Clergy and church communities value the ministerial support and expertise of trained pastoral lay ministers. In our Diocese we have three forms of lay ministry: affirmed, commissioned and licensed. Come and find out more about these ministries and what they offer; what training opportunities are available; and how they can assist with pastoral support to members of your church or the local community.
This opportunity to find out more about Pastoral Lay Ministry and how it can help your parish and community is led by Wendy Stephens (Diocesan Lead for Pastoral Lay Ministers) and Michael Brockett (Diocesan Lay Ministry Consultant), both Licensed Pastoral Lay Ministers (LPLM), supported by experienced pastoral lay ministers. It is open to anyone interested in finding out about pastoral lay ministry.
