Over the summer you are invited to participate in a 5-week course about how we live and learn together in the face of difference and diversity. 

The Pastoral Principles identify six ‘pervading evils’: prejudice, silence, ignorance, fear, hypocrisy and power. These ‘evils’ hinder our personal growth as Christians, hurt other people, and create barriers that stop our churches from growing into Christian communities of welcome and belonging.

Groups will be led by our clergy team and you can attend different groups to fit around other commitments.

SESSION 1: Listening and speaking – addressing IGNORANCE and paying attention to POWER
SESSION 2: Talking about confidence and casting out FEAR
SESSION 3: Talking about respect and acknowledging PREJUDICE
SESSION 4: Talking about openness and speaking into SILENCE
SESSION 5: Talking about integrity and admitting HYPOCRISY
