Initial Stationing Conversations

Reflective Exercise for Ministers

Initial Stationing Conversation

Ministers and their partners are offered the opportunity for a one-to-one conversation with the Chair of the District and the Lay Stationing Representative in early May.

The purpose of the meeting is to:

• Look at the re-invitation and stationing process.
• Reflect and discuss what the minister can offer and need at this stage in their ministry

This is the starting point for their preparation for stationing or re-invitation.
Time should be taken to reflect and pray about the direction of ministry. It may be time to
consider a call to a new area/scope for ministry in which case it is important that guidance and support is sought in making sense of this call.

The Reflective Exercise has some suggested questions which may help with this.
