Flourishing Together
Support for local church leaders
It is our prayer that this resource will encourage and support you with examples of good practice in shared leadership, so that you can flourish within your role, and we can together work in a vibrant, Christ-like church for the sake of God’s world. This resource sits alongside Flourishing in Ministry, a booklet for clergy and licensed lay ministers, published in 2018. Flourishing Together is primarily written for churchwardens, PCC members, deanery lay chairs and others in recognised leadership roles in their churches. It will also, we hope, be a useful resource for those in other church leadership roles and those considering taking up a leadership role in their local church. The booklet offers resources and suggestions for good practice in sharing leadership with ordained colleagues and guidance as to what parishes can reasonably expect of their clergy and lay ministers. The links below take you to the resources recommended in Flourishing Together. If you have suggestions of additional resources which could be useful to others, please let us know.
