I really feel the call of God on my life. People keep telling me to candidate for Specified Ministry. I know I need training and I am treating the Period of Discernment as an opportunity for preparation and spiritual reflection. I hope that my mentor will be a spiritual friend as I continue taking steps in this difficult and challenging journey. What path does God want me to take?
The Period of Discernment will help me to weigh up the pros and cons of specified ministry. If I stay in lay ministry I hope to understand my role in supporting specified ministries better. If I candidate I want to be sure that I do so for the right reasons and with my eyes and heart open. Seeking God's intention for my life through prayer, regular reading of the bible, regular worship, personal reflection and discussion with family, friends and people involved in different aspects of ministry in the Uniting Church.
