Sun shines on the Commissioned Ministers and their clergy during the celebration at Ballintoy. Connor Commissioned Ministers' scheme recently celebrated the end of a busy year with a service of celebration at Ballintoy Parish Church on Wednesday June 6.

Connor Diocese has commissioned 57 people in 12 parishes to carry out a range of roles from pastoral visitor to administrator and evangelist to youth worker.

The Commissioned Ministers’ scheme is part of the diocesan strategy to encourage ministry teams in every parish. The service of celebration, which was also attended by the Commissioned Ministers’ clergy, was led by the Ven Stephen Forde, Archdeacon of Dalriada.
