The conference centred on the Four Hallmarks of Ministry in Luke 24 (Jesus and the Disciples on the Road to Emmaus) given by Rev’d Dr Michael Paterson, CMD Coordinator in which he explored the Lucan text in the context of the current pandemic. You can download a copy of the text or watch a film of a slightly earlier version of the presentation on the Diocesan website. https://standrews.anglican.org/clergy-development-resources/

Thy Kingdom Come is a global prayer movement that invites Christians around the world to pray from Ascension to Pentecost for more people to come to know Jesus. Since its start in May 2016, just three and a half years ago, God has grown Thy Kingdom Come from a dream of possibility into a movement. In 2019 Christians from 172 countries took part in praying ‘Come Holy Spirit’, so that friends and family, neighbours and colleagues might come to faith in Jesus Christ.
Although it will be a little different this year, visit https://www.thykingdomcome.global/about-us to see how you can be involved.
