All Christians are "called" by God - we are called to enjoy his love, called to love God in return and to serve God in our lives.
It is currently a Diocesan priority that all Christians should be encouraged and enabled to fulfil their calling in the widest possible sense.

The remainder of this section provides information and various resource materials for clergy and lay ministers in training. These can be accessed by following either the training for discipleship & ministry, - initial ministry education years 4-7 - or continuing learning for ministry links.
