Ministry and Motherhood

A day Conference exploring the theme of Ministry and Motherhood will take place at Bishop Woodford House, Ely on Thursday 26th May.

The day will be led by Dr Emma Percy whose writing and research explores the interface of mothering and ministry and how that dialogue can inform and enrich our self-understanding and ministerial practice.

Pauline has recently written a dissertation on this subject for which she has won a prize from the British & Irish Association of Practical Theology.

The Conference is part of a series of events being offered to support the clergy of the Diocese of Ely and beyond.  It is fully subscribed, with a waiting list.

The conference is not just for women clergy/ministers with children but for anyone – male and female, married and single – who wants to think about the impact of this theme in the Church and wider society.

A crèche is available as part of the day.
