YEAR OF FAITH

REACHING OUT TO THOSE OUTSIDE THE CHURCH

"Faith grows when you give it away".

These notes are designed to accompany the Workshops offered during the Year of Faith to Deanery Groups in the Archdiocese of Birmingham.

These notes are designed to help you. They have been put together from a number of suggestions and examples of best practice collected from many parishes. They include a number of ideas, many of which may be irrelevant to you and your Parish - but some might be relevant! So they are included here in accordance with the parable of the sower. Choose one or two and do them well.
