We are delighted that Revd Canon Dr Ellen Loudon will be joining us to talk about how we can share what we have to encourage a new generation to create a movement for positive social change.
Using our Community Assets to make a Bigger Difference.
Ellen will be sharing some reflections on the Feeding of the 5000 – Matthew 14.13-21. How we can learn from the way Jesus used what was available, blessed the resource, shared it out (and there was even some leftover).
Rev Canon Dr Ellen Loudon - biography
I am Canon Chancellor of Liverpool Cathedral and Director of Social Justice for the Diocese of Liverpool. I have a PhD in Music Hall, an MA in pop music, BA in Drama and BA in Theology. Before I was ordained worked in the theatre and was a Senior Lecturer in Drama. I am trustee of a number of charities including Together Liverpool, Micah Liverpool and Liverpool Diocesan Council of Social Aid.
In the middle of lockdown my book 12 Rules for Christian Activists: A Toolkit for Massive Change was published. This book is an introduction to a way of ordering an active Christian life that makes positive change possible in a world that desperately needs difference makers. I have called it a Toolkit for Massive Change because it is my contention that our small deliberate, purposeful acts of social justice, done in the name of Jesus, will transform God’s world.
You can buy the book from Canterbury Press or all good independent bookshops on-line: https://canterburypress.hymnsam.co.uk/books/9781786222442/12-rules-for-christian-activists
