CMED Course - Priestly Authority
2016-02-23 10:00 - 15:00 UTC | Epiphany House, Truro, TR1 3DR, United Kingdom
with Rt Revd Tim Thornton
On what do we place our authority as those who are ordained and how do we continue to shape our understanding of authority? One of the implications for the Anglican Methodist Covenant is to ask the Church of England to look again at the possibility of the mutual recognition of ministries. On this day Bishop Tim will explore some of the traditional understandings of priesthood and enable those present to reflect on why they believe as they do and on what theological presuppositions views are held.
The day is open to all whether ordained or not and will especially focus on the different views on ordination between Anglicans and Methodists.
Bishop Tim is the Bishop of Truro.

9 January: Quiet Day ‘Sing a new song’
At Epiphany House, Truro, 10am – 4pm.
Led by Janette Mullet. The instruction to ‘sing to the Lord a new song’ comes many times throughout the Old Testament. But is it really possible to sing a song of thanksgiving in a world torn apart with disease, poverty, terrorism, violence, slavery, famine and natural disaster? We will explore these questions, look at songs new and old, look at biblical precedent and work towards responding in our own way to what God has done for us. There is no need to be a musician, or a good singer to participate, just come with an open heart. 10am – 4pm, cost £18 including a soup lunch.
