Barnabas: Encouraging Confidence places a high value on the wisdom that is in the parish, knowing that we can learn together and from one another!
My Faith Story Training
New resources are now available to enable parishes to run 'My Faith Story' training in their own church context.
The training consists of three 90-minute sessions, which can be run individually or together in one day, and in person or on Zoom. Powerpoints and presenter notes are provided.
The course includes:
- Why sharing faith is important
- Barriers we might face
- How Jesus shared with others
- Telling our own story
More details can be found here.
