This course is for anyone who is interested in learning more about the role of clerking. It applies to a variety of settings (Yearly/ Regional/ Local Meetings and committees) and provides opportunities to explore your gifts in this area.

We will be learning as much from each other as from the course facilitators.

There will be lots of free time to relax, share worship & meals, and be inspired by one another and the beautiful setting of Silver Wattle.
