The Third Yorkshire Synod Historic Churches Conference
|
The third Yorkshire Synod Historic Churches Conference follows earlier successful events which inspired members of many churches in Yorkshire and beyond to look again at their buildings as assets for mission.
Under the heading of 'SIGNIFICANCE AND CHANGE' it will examine the role of the historic church building in modern mission, using case studies from rural North Yorkshire and Kent to illustrate the point.
Because, following recent changes, the concept of 'significance' has a central role in considering the contribution of a building to mission, ample time will be given to explaining the implications of the new arrangements for churches.
SIGNIFICANCE AND CHANGE
Saturday 23 October 2010
9.15 - 3.30
Silcoates School, Wrenthorpe
Wakefield, WF2 0PD
Speakers:
David Peel: Chairman The Keld Resources Centre
Linda Monckton: Head of Places of Worship Research English Heritage
Kathy Gambell: The Hope Centre, Sheerness
Though of relevance particularly to churches occupying listed buildings, the meeting has a wider appeal and an invitation is extended to all the churches in the Synod, and to colleagues from other Synods.
