Foundations for Ministry Celebration
On May 1st there was a celebration evening at Bishop’s House for people who have been on the Foundations for Ministry course, with Bishop Mark presenting certificates to those who have completed one or both of the blocks of the course.
Â
This year more than fifty people completed the course. Here's what some of them said:
"... really enlightening and very useful for my future journey ..."
" ... nothing like I expected, and so much more ... I feel really blessed to have done it"
"absolutely life-changing!"
Bookings are now  open for the next block of the course, which starts in September. We hope to run the course in three locations: Ellesmere Port, Runcorn and Bramhall. Talk to your vicar if you would be interested in joining us and email ministry@chester.anglican.org for an application form.

Foundations for Ministry is a course of learning for anyone who wants to become better equipped to serve God in the world and the church. This is a new, shorter and more accessible version of the Foundations course and works in two blocks of 10 sessions: Together in Christ and Sharing Hope. One of the big changes to Foundations for Ministry is that there’s no longer any requirement to do assessed work to progress from Foundations into any further training or ministry.
