Tue 20 Feb 2024 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM GMT
Online, Zoom
Description
This is the first of two webinars on becoming a Single Friendly Church, focussing on Language and Welcome. Based on Steps 2 and 3 of our Guided Audit. This will be an interactive session with opportunities to discuss and share ideas with others.
We'll be discussing:
- How to adapt church language to ensure everyone feels valued
- Using the word "family"
- How to welcome people coming on their own
- Making the social life of the church inclusive of all
- Mother's Day
This is the first of two workshops. The second workshop on Teaching and Leadership will take place on Tuesday 27th February. Book here
This webinar is completely free and will last for one hour, with group discussions and a time of questions at the end. It is aimed at those in church leadership but anyone is welcome to attend. If you are not a leader in your church, we advise that you inform your church about the webinar and follow up with them afterwards. If you want to become a Single Friendly Church, you'll need them on board!
Single Friendly Church Network is a charity on a mission to encourage all churches to welcome and value single adults at every stage of life. More information can be found on our website.
Please note: If you are new to the subject of singleness in church, we recommend you watch the recording of our introductory webinar 'How to become a Single Friendly Church' prior to this workshop. Watch on YouTube here.
