We are blessed as a diocese with around 20 curates in different stages of their ministry. Joined by their training incumbents, they gathered in Woking as part of their ongoing training together this week. The events was framed with worship and prayer. There was a focus on mission and ministry, and a fun afternoon learning about communications including creating their own short videos. 

With curates based so far apart from each other, these events are very important to keep their fellowship and community alive, which continues in prayer. 

Revd Jenni Pridmore, Chaplain of St Mary's Rotterdam and acting head of IME2 said:

"It is wonderful to gather together to pray, worship, laugh, learn and hear everybody's perspective and the work of the church and the mission of Jesus Christ across our amazing diocese"
