Period of Discernment
A gift for the whole church
“Recognising that discernment of call to ministry belongs to the life of al Christian communities, the Period of Discernment is a gift which provides opportunity for any member of the Uniting Church to explore a call to a particular form of ministry.”
At the heart of this process is the understanding that all who have been baptised are called into the ministry of Jesus Christ. The essence of the Period of Discernment is to discern where that ministry lies. It is not simply a process to be completed prior to entry into the ordained ministry.
The ministry might be: Within the local congregation, faith community or church agency (e.g Youth Leader, Elder, Pastoral Carer, Lay Chaplain, Church Councillor). Within your normal place of work or within the wider community. Within one of the specified ministries of the Uniting Church (e.g Deacon, Minister of the Word, Pastor or Lay Preacher).
