Training Opportunities
St John's Church is running two courses, both starting week commencing 9 September.
-
"Transform our Thinking" - What is mental health? Why is it important to us as Christians and can our minds actually be renewed? Monday evenings led by Alan Staff, Audrey Couper and Steven Turnbull.
-
"Celtic Christianity & Rhythms of Life" - In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in Celtic Christianity - is it just a romantic notion or does it have something to teach us? Wednesday evenings led by Linda McDonald & Christina Duncan
Both of the above courses are in the Low Port centre
Quiet Waters Training
Quiet Waters are offering 2 upcoming training days that may be of interest to many. On Friday 20th September the focus is on Creative Listening / Accompaniment Skills, with a workshop on Comforting the Bereaved following on Friday 27th. While the workshops will particularly benefit people working in pastoral care, they are suitable for anyone wishing to enhance their skills and confidence in supporting others.
Both workshops will run from 10am-4pm on Zoom. The cost for each is £80 per person, or £150 if you book for both. Contact the Quiet Waters office here for more info on registration and payment.
St Michael's Parish church Toddler Group
Toddlers and jolly babies are on the look-out for some volunteers who would be able to help OCCASIONALLY. They have a great team but everyone needs a holiday now and then, so if you could lend a hand please get in touch with Fiona McCracken.
