Guild Council Members

Introducing the Guild Council.

Meetings have their place, but the Guild Council is far more than just a governing body.

Members like to be used, and they are within reasonable reach of most places (at least in England). 

So if you want a speaker, someone for a day on healing, or just to visit your branch or parish, or for advice on a particular point, why not get in touch with a Council member who is near to you?

They all have considerable experience of the ministry of healing and other gifts as well.

 

Bishop Reade will be taking up his post as Warden of the Guild in Advent this year.  He has a long connection with the healing ministry and has experience as a hospital chaplain as well as a parish priest.  He is currently the person to whom the House of Bishops looks for information about the healing ministry
