encouraging their most gifted and
talented young people to consider ordained ministry as a vocation, congregations began directing their

encourage the most
talented, across the whole community to become part of our profession — we need to have more women, more
young people, more from ethnic backgrounds and more representatives of those who have mobility impairments working in our industry.
