We are excited to announce that the family ministry research report, We Are Family: The Changing Face of Family Ministry will be introduced to Scotland at this day conference of the same name, to be held at St Silas Church, 69 Park Road, Glasgow. The conference will be hosted jointly by the Methodist Church and the Scottish Churches Children’s Group of Action of Churches Together in Scotland (ACTS) and is the culmination of two years’ ground-breaking research and consultation regarding the current shape of work with families across the Church in the UK undertaken by the Consultative Group on Children’s Ministry (CGMC) and the Methodist Church.

The day will be led by Gail Adcock, the Family Ministry Development Officer for The Methodist Church in the UK, Gail has been the lead coordinator for this research project.

This day event will explore a host of different ways in which the Church works with families and will seek to answer questions, such as:

  • How is the Church working with families today?
  • What does this ministry look like?
  • What training and resources are available for those working in this field?

Also experience the brand new “Core Skills for Family Ministry” course developed to equip all those working with families and includes reflections from Carrie Longton, co-founder of Mumsnet. Delegates will receive a free edition of the brand new Core Skills Course book.

Refreshments and lunch will be provided, a donation towards the catering costs would be appreciated.
