Certificate in Christian Discipleship Course

Oadby is one of the six venues for the Certificate in Christian Discipleship (CCD) course that is being run in Leicester Diocese for the first time this year. We have the largest group, with 22 people presently coming together from across south Leicestershire to The Barnabas Centre every Wednesday afternoon.

I'm tutoring the current module on Vocation and it's really worthwhile to be involved with people exploring the many aspects of God's call. But we don't all have to be accredited and authorised ministers; many of the people on the CCD course are simply doing it for interest and to deepen their knowledge.

If you're interested in what goes on, and perhaps in beginning the course yourself next year, do get in touch, or take a look at the information on the Diocesan website.

I've just come back from a planning meeting this evening at Church House, where we've been comparing the experiences of delivering the courses in different venues and gathering thoughts for the planning for next year.
