Nourishing the Soul

The wonderful Spirituality course ‘Nourishing the Soul’ begins in the new year. It ran for the first time 2 years ago and was hugely appreciated by the many lay church members and clergy who participated – there have been many requests to offer it again. It is led by members of the Cumbria Ecumenical Spirituality Group (including Canon Cameron Butland, our diocesan Spirituality Adviser).

This course is for you if you want to:

Ø  Discover more about your Christian spiritual heritage

Ø  Experience different ways of praying

Ø  Find new resources to feed and enrich your soul

Ø  Meet with others on a similar journey of discovery

Ø  Reaffirm your own faith journey

Ø  Consider becoming a spiritual director…

The course takes place on one Saturday per month between February and November 2015, at Rydal Hall near Ambleside. The deadline for applications is 31st January. Contact Chris Woods on cesg.chriswood678@yahoo.co.uk

Advent Sunday, Commissioning of Pamela

Special Service November 30th Advent Sunday

A special joint Service between Torver and Coniston Anglican Churches is being held on 30th November at 11 a.m. in St. Andrew’s Coniston.  At the service of Holy Communion Canon Amiel Osmaston, The Diocesan Ministerial Development Officer, will commission Mrs Pamela Hull on behalf of the Bishop of Carlisle as Local Lay Minister for Coniston and Torver.  This means that Pamela has undergone approved theological training with the Diocesan Training Scheme and will hold a license from the Bishop to lead worship and work for the Church in the Parishes.

We pray for God’s blessing on Pamela and Howard as he supports her, in Pamela’s ministry with us.
