LLM training Day

Please be advised that we will be holding two further Diocesan Lay Ministers (LLM) Training days for those who are licensed as “Liturgical Ministers” and we encourage you to attend as the subject to be covered (see below) are important.  The first is to be held in Christ’s Church Mandurah on Saturday 21^st July, while the second is to be held at the Church of Living Water in Oyster Harbour on Saturday 28^th July 2012.  Those who attended the training day at the Cathedral Grammar School on the 21^st April need not attend these, as the material covered at all three will be the same.  However it is important that you attend one of the three.

The programme for the day will be as follows:

  9.00 am    Gather for a cuppa

  9.30 am    Eucharist by Bishop Allan Ewing

10.30 am    The Extended Communion (booklet) by Bishop Allan Ewing

11.30 am    Feedback and Parish implications by Fr Joe Hopkins

12.00 noon Sermon Appreciation by Bishop Allan Ewing

12.30 pm    Lunch

  1.15 pm    Resources within the Prayer Book by Fr Joe Hopkins

  2.15 pm    Closing Prayers by Bishop Allan Ewing

  2.30 pm    Finish

It is important that both the Clergy and Licensed Lay Assistants attend these training days so that we can all be properly informed about the changes to the way that the Extended Communion service will be led throughout the Diocese.  This new “order of service” will replace all other orders of service currently being used throughout the Diocese.

Those attending are asked to bring their own lunch:  tea and coffee will be supplied.  Would you also please bring a copy of the Red Prayer Book from your Parish for the session titled “Resources within the Prayer Book”.

Please put which ever day is more convenient to you into your diary now to ensure your participation.  We hope to see you there.
