    Diocese of St Mark the Evangelist Final Year Planner Notes for 2014

    Diocese of St Mark the Evangelist


    Year Planning Notes for 2014
    2) Because of the number of parishes, I can only
    schedule one visit to most. Parishes may
    decide whether or not to use this visit for
    Confirmations. Other dates are reserved for
    special events (like Institution of new Rectors).
    3) I have scheduled three visits each to Sibasa
    and Sekhukhuneland because they are in the
    process of multiplication.
    4) I have planned 3 meetings of Diocesan
    Standing Committee, Diocesan Finance
    Board and Trustees. In order to save on
    transport costs, we are experimenting with
    clustering these meetings together. If you attend
    several of these meetings and come from far,
    please make a plan to sleep over in Polokwane.
    5) The Finance Working Committee will meet
    between Trustees and DFB meetings to monitor
    financial progress.
    6) In addition to the above, there will be an
    Archdeacons Lekgotla and a DFB Lekgotla.
    7) I have proposed 3 Dates for Archdeaconry
    Council Meetings (fitting in with Budget
    deadlines). Archdeacons and the Leadership
    Team should agree on how best to include
    leadership training in these dates. Archdeacons
    and the Leadership Team are free to agree on a
    4th meeting if it will help them in their work.
    8) The Diocesan Leadership Team will focus on
    training and equipping Chapelry leaders this year
    and helping Parishes to form Clusters where
    multiplication in planned. They will work with
    Archdeacons and Parishes to set dates.
    9) We have tried to include all Diocesan and
    Archdeaconry events in this diary. Together with
    Chapter, I feel strongly that we should not
    overburden members of the Diocese with more
    meetings than necessary!
    10) Growing Lay Ministers covers training in these
    4 areas:
    Pastoral Care: Every parish is asked to invite
    a CL team to conduct a 5 hour Christian
    Listening (1) workshop for them.
    Preachers: Langham Preaching in May will
    cover Level 2 (New Testament)
    Worship Leaders:
    Youth Pastors:
    11) Bishops Lent Teaching at Christ Church
    Cathedral will take place at 6pm on Wednesday
    evenings during Lent on the theme: Celebrate
    Gods Good Gifts How to make the most of
    all Gods good gifts to us.

    Notes
    1) All stipendiary clergy are expected to be present
    at Clergy Fellowship days, Clergy School and
    Clergy Retreat. And it will be great if as many
    Self Supporting Clergy as possible can join us.
    There are all sorts of important issues that I am
    hoping to deal with!
