Long may it continue! But it takes very little to draw up a statement of how you work. Yours would be something like 'preach and/or lead at Sunday services on average 1/2 times a month and other special services as agreed. You could add in one weekend off (a month?) and some estimate of the hours you will be able to commit to ministry, including attendance at committees etc. Something about expenses and training needs is often included.<br /><br />Drawing up and reviewing this gives you & your 'vicar' a chance to discuss your ministry as it develops; and when s/he moves on, or new colleagues arrive in the team, it is something in writing on which to base any new arrangement.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08076057434281738924noreply@blogger.com
