Highlighting a New Course in Practical Inter Faith Work

Maggie Hindley at the London Inter Faith Centre (seen here with friends of LIF) is excited about the new course the centre is running from Tuesday 8th October for clergy and laity.

The key is in the title - this is about PRACTICAL inter faith work - and it's ecumenical.

Each of the ten sessions (one per month) takes place in a different venue and begins with an introduction to that venue's work and context. 

Participants will be enabled to develop a piece of inter faith work in their own locality and gain tools to help reflect on their own engagement.

The course costs £300, which covers travel costs from home (within reason) and a hot vegetarian lunch each session as well as speakers’ expenses and materials.

Participants are encouraged to apply for denominational grants.

The fee can be paid in installments by arrangement.

Bursary help is available for people unable to find the whole cost. Maggie says the centre's policy is that nobody should be excluded from taking part for reasons of cost.

The Course runs for Ten Tuesdays from  10am – 4pm on the following dates:-

8^th Oct, 5^th Nov, 10^th Dec, 14^th Jan, 11^th Feb, 11^th March, 8^th April, 6^th May, 10^th June, 7^th July

Participants are to commit to a minimum of seven out of the ten sessions.
