As the UK opens up after lockdown more and more people will be looking to Unitarian communities to host Rites of Passage for them. From weddings, blessings, memorial services and child welcomings we anticipate an increased demand from people to mark significant life milestones that may have been reached during lockdown.<\/p>\n

To coincide with this, Unitarian College is delighted to announce we will be offering a course in how to lead these ceremonies to a high standard.<\/p>\n

The course will be offered in a blended way, through meetings on ZOOM followed by a residential weekend at the The Nightingale Centre, Great Hucklow, Derbyshire.<\/p>\n

The relevant dates are:<\/p>\n

Residential weekend at The Nightingale Centre:
Friday 7th July to Sunday 9th July 2023<\/p>\n

The course will be led by Rev Ant Howe and Rev Michael Dadson of Unitarian College along with other visiting experts.<\/p>\n

Places are limited and will be offered on a first come, first served basis as payments are received. Thanks to a subsidy from the Hibbert Trust, the cost of the course is \u00a3250. This includes all tuition along with food and accommodation at The Nightingale Centre (but not travel costs). Participants are encouraged to approach congregations and Districts to help with funding. If you would like to take the course but cannot afford the fee, please contact us and we will see what we can do to help.<\/p>\n

If your congregation is affiliated to the North West Provincial Assembly, you will be entitled to a \u00a3125 subsidy. To book your place and find out more, please email HMason@unitarian-college.org.uk<\/a> or send an enquiry via the contact form below.<\/p>\n

\"Photo“The formation of the Unitarian College has opened up the possibility of ministry training to people like me, who otherwise would not have been able to study due to the confines of the modern life. As a modern institution UC is very much in touch with the reality. The training programme is tailor-made to fit each student\u2019s individual circumstances. The content of the course is incredibly rich, covering a vast spectrum of topics, using various methods of teaching and student engagement. The ministry training programme perfectly balances being \u201cdown to earth\u201d on one hand, and \u201clooking up to the heavens\u201d on the other, placing emphasis on the practical application of the acquired skills, knowledge and insights in the 21st century British Unitarian congregations. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that we still get the same rich learning experience under the restrictions posed by Covid.<\/p>\n

But UC is much more than just an educational establishment. It\u2019s a support network for those embarking on a journey of professional ministry. It\u2019s a space where we, students, learn just as much from each other as we do from our tutors. It\u2019s a space where new friendships are made and future professional relationships are formed.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
