Real Change

Real Change - Six week Pastoral Care course starting Sunday 1 November
God calls each of us to care for one another, but going deeper in conversation to support and care for someone spiritually can feel daunting. If you are one of us who find it difficult, or even if you already love doing it but want to know how to do it even better, you will find this course helpful in equipping you to stand alongside those who are struggling.
Running over 6 sessions, it's a course that helps us to apply the truths of the bible to ordinary, every day life. Each week we will learn together and then we'll take time to reflect individually on how what we have learnt impacts our own heart as well as working in pairs to hear each other’s struggles and learn how to point to the Lord in the midst of these.
We’ll meet at 2 Lochside Avenue after the gathering every Sunday lunchtime from Sunday 1 November to Sunday 6 December at 1pm. Bring a packed lunch and we'll eat together, we'll be together for around an hour and a half and there will be a bit of thinking for you to do in between our weekly sessions.  
Please do sign up on the app (go to What's on/Special Events) so we have enough resources - everyone attending will be given a copy of the book "Real Change" by Andrew Nicholls and Helen Thorne which we will use together each week. You can check out the book here, and if you have any questions, contact Rachel Kerr at rachel.kerr@hopecityedinburgh.org.
