Listening Day Gallery

The photos in our gallery are the output from our 2023 Listening Days. We responded to two questions:

• In the past 5 years, what do we look like when we’re at our best as a parish?

• What are our hopes for St James’ and St Anne’s in the next two years, with regards to: what we might do and how we resource these activities?

Parishioners from all congregations are invited to share their responses by clicking the contact us button.

What do the dots on the pages mean?

The paper output from our Zoom and In-Person Listening Days will be on display at St Anne’s on Sunday 18 and Sunday 25 June, and then in the Parish Centre On Sunday 2 July and Sunday 9 July.

The display gives those who could not attend the opportunity to read over all the work that was done at our Listening Days on May 31 and June 3.  If you haven’t already done so, you can also ‘vote’ for the ideas that spark your imagination by placing a colour-coded sticker on the sheets. 

Yellow dots are for St Anne’s

Blue dots are for the morning congregations at St James’

Green dots are for the afternoon Dinka-language congregation at St James’

Pink dots are for clergy

The ‘voting’ is one consideration in which ideas we will focus on in the immediate term; the process of discernment will also include consideration by the Mission Action Planning Committee and Parish Council.

If you can’t go into the Parish Centre you can give your feedback by using the contact us button.
