Continuing Ministerial Development

Formation

Christian Formation is a continual process that leads to the development of maturity and purpose in our lives as followers of Christ.

The diocese puts on regular programmes for ministers at different stages of ministry, including:

  • First incumbents
  • Supervision skills for those who supervise students in training
  • People changing post
  • Leadership
  • People in team ministries, especially Team Rectors
  • Clergy approaching retirement.

Each year the bishop invites clergy and Readers to Diocesan CMD Days, run over a Sunday and Monday and/or Archdeaconry Formation Days. All are welcome, but stipendiary clergy are expected to attend these. The diocese runs a major conference for all clergy every three years.

CMD Grants

Information on CMD Grants is available in the Clergy Admin section.
