As new Deanery Synods will be elected this year, Worcester Deanery has tried to find creative ways to explain to parishes what happens at synod meetings and encourage more people to stand.
Lay Chair, Sue Rowlands interviewed Claudia Catterall, one of the representatives from All Saints, Worcester about why she stood for Deanery Synod and what she enjoys about it. They hope that parishes will show this short film to encourage others to get involved.
Watch the film:
They have also produced a flyer to hand out to parishes alongside the film giving a bit more informaiton about what happens at synod and how people can get involved.
Other deaneries are welcome to use this film, and if they would like a version of the flyer specifically for their deanery, please contact Sam in the Communications Team.
If you are inspired to join deanery synod - do speak to you parish priest in the first instance!
