Worthy of your Calling

This Saturday, 16th April, parishioners and clergy from around the Diocese of Kilmore, Elphin and Ardagh gathered in the Bush Hotel in Carrick-on-Shannon for this year’s Diocesan Resource Day.

Ministry and mission are for all. The local church is a place for everyone to exercise their ministry and mission and the aim of the DKEA Resource day was to train, resource and equip church members for service inside and outside the church.

An incredibly diverse range of workshops ran throughout the day – from information on financial management to fresh ideas for communicating God’s word or reaching out to children and young people, to practical ideas for community outreach.

The day was informative, inspiring, practical, encouraging and motivating. If you missed it this year’s Diocesan Resource Day make sure you sign up next time!
