On the afternoon of Sunday, 19th November our sisters and brothers at Glossop Methodist Church are hosting a visit by the President and Vice President of the Methodist Conference, respectively, the Revd Gill Newton and Deacon Kerry Scarlett. The focus of the visit is ‘justice’ which reflects the re-affirmation at the 2023 Methodist Conference of the Methodist Church’s long-standing commitment to be a justice-seeking Church.
We are invited to join the community event at Glossop Methodist Church which starts at 3pm. There will be stalls showcasing ‘justice seeking’ groups and ‘environmental campaigning’ groups. At 3.40pm there will be a number of workshops to explore different aspects of justice:
• tackling inequality and poverty
• enabling a flourishing environment
• seeking justice for refugees
• opposing discrimination
• pursuing peace
Refreshments will be available at 4.30pm, and there will be an Act of Worship at 5.30pm at which the President of the Methodist Conference will preach.
