Dates for Your Diary
A look at what is happening in various organisations
Saturday 17th June, 10:00 am
LICC (London Institute for Contemporary Christianity) with Diocese of Sheffield Lights for Christ
ReWork | Sheffield
What does it mean to be as alert to God’s presence at your desk as you are in the pew? How can we live with the habits and practices that sustain our faith through the week? And what does it look like to do the work in front of us with a conviction that our work is worship?
ReWork is a one-day event that takes a deep dive into those questions, aimed at people in the first decade of work.
Cost: £14 (lunch and doughnuts included)
Venue: St Thomas Crookes Church, Sheffield

CHRISM (CHRistians In Secular Ministry)
Chrism Summer Conference:
“I Go to the Hills….”
In the tradition of MSE, what does it mean to go to the hills to encounter God in Work?
Where do we find work in the area of the Lake District? How do we encounter God at work in it?
What are the competing pressures on the landscape – tourism, farming, rewilding? Many people come here as a place of refreshment. What do we do to recharge our batteries?
