Pioneer Ministers’ Residential
Recently, Archbishop Michael Jackson preached at CITI as part of the commissioning service for the new Ordinand Student Readers. During his visit, he met with the second year Church of Ireland Pioneer Ministers, who were also in attendance as part of one of their training residentials.
Within our own Diocese of Dublin and Glendalough, we currently have two Pioneer Ministers in training: Shane Maguire, who is in his second year, and Aaron Halliwell, who is in his first year. For more information about them and all the new Church of Ireland Pioneer Ministers, please see https://www.pioneerministry.org/2024-pioneers.
Also pictured is David Ritchie, Chief Officer of the Representative Church Body (RCB), who had the opportunity to meet the new Pioneer Ministers.
