Spiritual Life
- Incumbent and curate should say Morning and Evening
Prayer together most days of the week. The realistic involvement of self-supporting
ministers and ministers in secular employment needs to be negotiated with
care.
- Curates should have some involvement in the provision
and leadership of weekday services.
- There should be the opportunity for the curate to
have regular opportunity for quiet time and meditation.
- The curate should be given time to intercede for particular
concerns and people.
- All curates should have a spiritual adviser. There
should be agreement about time given to consult him/her (if the curate wishes,
the Post Ordination Training Directors will help find an adviser).
- All curates should be given the opportunity for an
annual retreat.
