Are you a minister of an evangelical church or involved in regular Bible ministry? Do you live in or near West or East Sussex? If the answer is "yes" then explore this site and find details of a programme of seminars just for you!
Life in ministry is extremely busy and highly pressurised with few regular opportunities for ministers to be ministered to and helped in thinking through issues that face the evangelical church in this country. Many appreciate informal groupings where we can pray and share together as well as annual conferences.
However, we believe there is real benefit in a programme of locally organised seminars providing a forum for hearing and discussing theological papers and ministry aimed at ministers. The name that has been given to this programme is the Sussex Evangelical Ministry Seminars (SEMS).
SEMS meetings are normally on a Monday morning and usually include two presentations with ample time for questions and then opportunities for informal fellowship and discussion
This website contains the main information on upcoming SEMS events and recordings of past presentations.
Feel free to browse the site.
The "about" section tells you more about the purpose of SEMS.
The "resources" section has MP3 recordings of previous SEMS events and a downloadable application form.
The "diary" section has more detailed desciption of upcoming events
