I enjoyed being back at SMBC in Sydney, this time for a week long intensive on Resilience and Self Care in Ministry. All the notes and exercises from the course are in the dropbox and have been loaded onto the moodle site.

EPIC–Healthy Ministry
I always enjoy the first training day of a new EPIC (Enabling Priests in Charge) cycle. It was great to listen to the wide range of self-care strategies already in place for clergy and to help them reflect on additional strategies. I enjoyed hearing Grant Bickerton present his research findings yet again.
