Stationing

introduction

Stationing

Stationing is the process by which ministers (presbyters and deacons) are invited to serve in the Methodist Church. Ministers are stationed to circuits with the appointment starting on 1 September. Most initial appointments are for 5 years, after which the minister can request a re-invitation.

The Methodist Church produces a Code of Practice each year, to ensure consistency of approach across the Connexion and is to be followed by all involved in the process. You can download a copy and other forms and guidelines from the Stationing section of the Methodist Church Website: https://www.methodist.org.uk/for-churches/ministries/stationing/

In the Sheffield District, all who are likely to be involved in the Stationing process are invited to attend various events led by the Chair of the District ( Revd Gill Newton ) and the Lay Stationing Representative ( Gill Daly ), depending on their role within the church

Details of these events can be found below.
