The new year has started WELL! On her first day back after an extended Christmas break in New Zealand, our lead networker Ros gathered Christian Professional Group leaders together in London for a very productive meeting. This month, we’ve visited several more Christian Workplace Groups (CWGs) in London councils, re-connected with more groups across the country, and are really moving out in networking within the City of London. Doors are opening for us to move forward with groups in the railway industry and also in education and health. Exciting things are happening in the workplaces of the nation! |
Developing a Case for Formal Recognition of a Christian Workplace Group A CWG can be more effective in influencing its workplace for God by being part of the organisation as a formally endorsed staff network. This enables groups to work together with management to bring godly values to the heart of their organisation, it allows greater freedoms, confers legitimacy, and lets Christians know it’s ‘all right’ to be a Christian in that organisation. If this could be the next step for your group, read our on-line guide to developing a business case to support recognition, just published, and get in touch – we’d love to help you. |
Sharethemiracle It’s great for groups to put on events from time to time to raise the profile of Christianity, and of the group itself. Easter is an excellent occasion for explaining the real message of Christianity. We are happy to endorse Sharethemiracle as a great way of marking Easter in the workplace! Sharethemiracle can help you to build community and reach your colleagues – in doing an act of kindness, by inviting them to an Easter event, at the same time giving them a free Easter egg! Thousands were involved last year, including several CWGs, whose attendances at Easter events were boosted by this initiative. Could you sharethemiracle this year? |
