Living in Love and Faith Course

Village Hall
Village Hall, Fulstow, LN11 0XG, United Kingdom
How do questions about identity, sexuality, relationships, and marriage fit within the bigger picture of the good news of Jesus Christ? What does it mean to live in love and faith together as a Church?

Since 2017, the Church of England has been journeying together to explore some of these questions by means of a suite of Living in Love and Faith resources published in November 2020. The bishops of the Church of England invited church communities from across the country to use the resources to learn together, and to listen to one another and God. Everyone who took part was encouraged to share their insights, stories, and reflections to contribute to the bishops’ discernment about matters of identity, sexuality, relationships, and marriage.

Safeguarding

“Most of the time at church we are like a big happy family. However even in very happy families people can have a bad day and even people we know and trust can upset us. We want to help everyone have good days all of the time. We try to make sure that people who have jobs in the church always behave well and in a way that is helpful to you. We never want anyone or anything in church to frighten you, confuse you or worry you. It is important that you tell us if something is upsetting you or if you are feeling worried about something that’s happening or something somebody is doing. We have specially trained people who you can talk to and who you can ask for help. These people are good at safeguarding. This means they look after everyone’s safety. Caring for people is a very important part of our Christian life.

The people who can help you are the rural dean or the parish safeguarding officer. You can contact the safeguarding officer Mrs Lesley Thornes. Telephone: 07825 293389. E-mail: [email protected]
