New to Post Conference

Each year the dioceses of the eastern region (Chelmsford, Ely, Norwich, Peterborough, St Albans and St Edmundsbury and Ipswich) hold a residential conference for those who have been appointed to incumbency or priest in charge posts in the previous year. In most dioceses this part of a programme of CME for those new to post.




The aim of the conference is to help anyone new to post to reflect on the work they have begun and to consider how to move forward in the parish. A Parish Profile Analysis (click to download) is undertaken prior to the conference and most of the work is done in small facilitated groups of four.

The conference is led by those with experience of continuing ministerial education and people with particular expertise from participating dioceses to enrich and facilitate our work together.


The event offers an opportunity for mutual support through informal networking and fellowship and shared prayer and worship.

Further details are available from David Parrott.
