Focal Ministry
“Could God be calling you to share in the local leadership of your church? No doubt he will equip you for the task and, through you, bring the good works
The Rt Revd Stephen Conway, Bishop of Lincoln
around you to completion.”
What is a Focal Minister?
Focal Ministers are an everyday presence and focus of ministry within their local church and community. As a pillar of practical leadership, they strengthen and uphold our ability to be who we are called to be, bringing out the very best in all our activities and actions for Christ.
This will be the first cohort of new Focal Ministers.
If you are someone who is interested in becoming a Focal Minister, please contact the Oversight Minister for your church in the first instance.
The nomination form can be accessed on the ‘Focal Ministry Resources for Clergy’ page.
Applications close on Wednesday 31 July 2024.
