Engagement with Integrity


Twenty-five people from across PEN's four dioceses came to Saturday's seminar on 'Sharing the Faith: Engagement with Integrity'.  Stories of parish engagement were blended with theological reflection, discussion and fellowship - and information on the wealth of training resources available to congregations in multi faith contexts.  But what came across most clearly was that these congregations, their commitment and experience, is the greatest resource.  We will be posting materials from the event online soon, so that this resource is available more widely - both to others ministering in multi faith contexts, and to those whose experience of religious diversity comes mainly via the media or workplace.

The final autumn seminar, on 'Praying and Worshipping', is at the London Inter Faith Centre on the morning of Saturday 14th November.  Email Susanne Mitchell to book a place.
