Training for Resource
Church Leaders
Camino is a new guided learning programme designed to apprentice future resource church leaders and other Church of England incumbents involved in strategic church planting.
Fostering grounded leadership and nurturing a culture of church multiplication and revitalisation, the training focuses on providing essential theological understanding and skills for strategic church planting.
The programme covers key areas including missional strategy, intergenerational and intercultural engagement, developing lay and ordained vocations, engaging with younger generations, good governance, and safeguarding for large churches.
Participants undergo a 16-month part-time training journey that combines residential sessions, online learning, professional coaching, and practical ministry applications.
The programme will foster collaboration among peers and build a strong ongoing learning community.
Camino is a collaboration between St Hild College and Faith in the North, supported by the Office of the Archbishop of York.
It will primarily serve dioceses in the Northern Province, but will also be accessible to other dioceses and denominations.
The project forms part of a northern enabling strategy to support parish revitalisation and church planting across the region.
It supports the national vision to become a growing, younger and more diverse church by developing leaders who embody this commitment.
