Briefing for Living in Love and Faith (LLF) Group Leaders

To enable group leaders within our churches to have safe and brave conversations around Living in Love and Faith (LLF)

About this Event

(This event is being repeated several times in 2021)

Living in Love and Faith (LLF) is a major 'learning journey' project for the Church of England. At the heart of the project is a five session course. This event is for those planning to lead (or considering leading) a group of people in engaging with the course. This will normally be as part of the life of a local church, or in partnership between churches.

The event will include:

• An introduction to Living in Love and Faith (see also the two-minute Introduction video: https://youtu.be/g7A3wt0jqZM)

• Refresher training on group facilitation skills (we will assume that participants come with a reasonable level of experience and skills in this area)

• Preparing for some of the potential challenges of leading an LLF discussion group
