Transforming Our Diocese – Roadshows

The Diocese is holding a consultation (PDF document) about how to address our mission opportunities for the future, as well as some of our present challenges.

There are Roadshows around the Diocese to help people understand the issues, and to glean experience and ideas. The Archbishop, bishops and archdeacons very much hope that all parishes will be represented at the Roadshows — everybody’s insights are important, and the things we are discussing will affect every church, large and small. Our shared thinking and decisions now will have a big effect on the life of the Diocese for a long time to come.

Roadshows near us:
Friday 16 September at 7.30pm: Northallerton Methodist Church (opposite All Saints’ Church)
Thursday 29 September at 7.30pm: Trinity Centre, North Ormesby, Middlesbrough

There is a booking form on the diocesan website where you can select a venue and book a place. The Roadshows are open to everyone.
