Spirituality Statement
The Diocesan Spirituality Group have been reviewing its role and seek to closely align the spirituality work with the Diocesan Vision and Strategy.
A new statement was drafted at the November meeting which aims to explain the role of the DSG, which reads as follows:
‘We recognise that spirituality is something that every human being has and is something to be nurtured and developed in all of us regardless of age. The Diocesan vision of "transformed lives through growing church and building community" is rooted in our making and encouraging of Christian disciples. The diocesan spirituality group (DSG) seeks to offer ways to deepen your walk with God, following Jesus as the Holy Spirit works to transform your inner journey leading to outward faith’.
Cycle of Prayer
Please prayer for the ministry and mission of the diocese, the parishes, churches and individuals.
Many people still seem unaware of the diocesan Cycle of Prayer, this can be accessed via the Diocesan website.
