The Centre for Ministry and Leadership (CML) is a new initiative being trialled by Moreton Rivers Presbytery throughout 2024. We are very excited to share with you the 2024 Schedule for the Centre for Ministry and Leadership Workshops.
The schedule encompasses five blocks of workshops through out the year with some repeat workshops between the first and second half of the year. Some workshops are designed for those people who are wishing to complete core competencies (for period of discernment, lay preacher recognition, and pastors in ministry location) and other workshops are for continuing education and general professional development.
These formation and education resources will be delivered across a number of intensive blocks and unless otherwise designated, face to face workshops (including Hybrid), will be run out of Clayfield Uniting Church, 170 Bonney Ave, Clayfield.
