FAQS

Where can I be involved in a conversation about specified ministries in the UCA?

You can be involved in the conversations anywhere – in your local congregation, in your home group, in any of the councils of the UCA. The resources are available online. Contact your local church, and ask if they have a group organised to be part of the conversations. If not, why not be the person who gets it going?
This is an important conversation for the church to have, and the more voices that are heard the better view we get of what are the ministry realities facing the UCA.

What if I want to be involved with the process, but papers and discussion groups just aren’t my thing?

You can be involved in other ways too – e-chat groups will be available – check out the home page of this website to find out how you can be involved. Also on this site will be people’s interactions with this issue in other ways – audio conversations, artwork, written conversations, prayers etc. If you would like to contribute to this conversation in other creative ways, contact us – this is a conversation for everyone, and a conversation that can be held in many ways.

How do we make the conversations interesting?

That’s up to you! Think about where the conversations happen (in the church, in a park, over dinner or coffee, in the local pub, on the telephone…), who will be involved, and what you want to get out of the conversation. We want to hear what you think about the issue – but you can also use the conversations to learn about the specified ministries of the UCA, or to think about ministry in your local area and how effective it is.
