SUMMARY:Yorkshire Synod - Annual Elders’ Conference
DESCRIPTION:‘Wise and Wonderful: the Gift and Responsibility of God’s Creation’ \n \nWe live as part of an abundant planet\, rich in life and possibilities. The Covid-19 pandemic has\, for some\, provided an opportunity to discover God at work in creation\, and it has also reminded us of our connectedness and our vulnerability as a species. As we look beyond the pandemic\, we are very conscious of the pressing challenges of climate change and other threats to our fragile environment. This day will be an opportunity to reflect on both the gift and the responsibility of God’s creation. What does it mean to live faithfully as part of God’s world today\, especially in the context of a pandemic and an ecological crisis? How can our churches and church members play their part in caring for creation\, and how can we offer leadership in this? \nThis immersive and inspiring online event will include thought-provoking input and practical ideas\, as well as time for individual reflection\, worship\, and exchange. It will be led by Simeon Mitchell and Roo Stewart\, from the URC’s national Church and Society programme\, alongside members of the Yorkshire Synod Elders Development Group. \nInformation can be found here\, and links to the registration documents are below. \nTimetable:\n \n\n\n\n10:00\nWelcome and introductions\n\n\n10:05\nOpening worship\n\n\n10:20\nPlenary session 1: The Gift of Creation\n\n\n10:45\nTime for personal reflection – with suggested prayer walk or awareness meditation\n\n\n11:30\nPlenary session 2: Our Responsibility to Creation\n\n\n11:50\nBible study/discussion in small groups\, or personal reflection time – with suggested questions\n\n\n12:15\nBreak\n\n\n12:30\nWorkshops 1 (see below)\n\n\n1:15\nLunch Break\n\n\n2:00\nRe-gathering\n\n\n2:05\nWorkshops 2 (see below)\n\n\n2:50\nBreak\n\n\n3:05\nPlenary session 3: Hope for the Future\n\n\n3:35\nClosing worship\n\n\n3:45\nEnd\n\n\n\n\nWorkshops (please choose your preferred two of five): \n\n\n\nSpeaker-led workshops:\n\n\na)\n \nAdvocating for political action on climate issues – led by Rachel Mander\, from Hope for the Future\n\n\nb)\n \nEco Church – led by Helen Stephens\, from A Rocha\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n‘Bring and share’ discussion workshops (bring your questions\, share your experiences in small groups)\n\n\nc)\n \nMaking personal lifestyle changes in response to ecological concerns\n\n\nd)\n \nGetting your church on board with the issues\n\n\ne)\n \nRe-imagining the post-Covid church in the context of a climate crisis\n\n\n\n\nTo register \nPlease complete the registration form (Word document or pdf document)\, and return to Val Morrison\, email valmorrison7@btinternet.com.  Please include: your name\, email address\, full postal address and your preferred two workshops. \n  \n
