msm Derby and Notts

You are invited to share a learning journey in a supportive community to be equipped for a lifetime of good practice and learning in growing fresh expressions of church.

Your local course

The Church of England and Methodist Church in Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire are delighted to make msm available locally. We believe it will be a significant resource for building the Kingdom of God in this area.

Individuals are most welcome, but we particularly hope that small groups from a church or fresh expression will come as this will deepen the impact of the course.

The course leaders are Revd M Mitton and Revd M Redshaw. Teachers include Revd M Mitton, Revd M Redshaw, Revd R Quarton and Mr G Bell.

Recommendations

I wholeheartedly endorse msm as a tool for equipping, sharing, resourcing and encouraging mission. As a part of the Fresh Expressions vision and the Methodist Church priority (with our ecumenical partners) for missional engagement in our communities, it has equipped over 2000 people for new, creative work as well as awakening a sense of mission in many others.

Revd Loraine Mellor, Chair, Nottingham & Derby Methodist District

msm provides one of the most exciting and creative ways in which God's gifts can be nourished and focused to have maximum impact for the Gospel in our times. I hope that many will take advantage of this important opportunity - I commend the course warmly. God ever calls us to be agents of His new and surprising life.
