Baptisms, Wedding and Funerals

We will develop opportunities to share the preparation and follow up, and where appropriate the conduct of services in these pastoral encounters.

Parenting Support

We will explore opportunities to develop collaborative methods of offering parenting support.

Shared Ministerial Cover

We will operate a system whereby one minister will always be “on call”, and “time off” can be secured.

Elderly/ Housebound

While recognising the importance of local contact, we will explore opportunities to develop collaborative methods of offering pastoral care to housebound, elderly & bereaved persons.

Crisis Care

We will explore opportunities to develop collaborative methods of offering crisis care.

Lay Training

From the larger lay membership of the Parish Grouping, there will be greater involvement and opportunities for training of members, encouraging and enabling them to share in a pastoral ministry; the congregations will work together to share ideas and develop programmes in this field.
