A TASTER DAY for the CMS Certificate in Pioneer Mission will take place on Saturday 1st February 2020. This one day event will provide an opportunity to find out more about the Certificate in Pioneer Mission course. The Certificate in Pioneer Mission is aimed at people who can show they have a record of pioneering – even in small ways – at work or in social situations or in a church context. The course will help those who are exploring contextually appropriate ways of engaging people with the gospel outside the church, or initiating something which will help advance the kingdom of God. The day will be held at the Old Deanery in Wells, starting at 9.30am and finishing at 3.00pm. If you would like to register for this event Contact us or call 01934 822857.
