The course will run on Wednesday evenings via Zoom. Arrival will be from 7.15pm ready for a 7.30pm start. Each session will last 90 minutes:

  • Wednesday 7 September – Welcome, introductions and what to expect
  • Wednesday 14 September – Session 1: God’s Call
  • Wednesday 21 September – Session 2: Crossing Divides

The ‘Difference‘ course explores how to talk, listen and engage well with people who are different from us. The initiative originated with Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, who has a vision that the Church should be a reconciling presence in the world.
