Deanery Mission Planning 2025 - 2028
In November 2025 representatives from all 12 Deanery Development Groups met at St Aidan’s Morpeth for the launch of Season Two of our Deanery Mission Planning Programme.
The three key areas we are asking Deaneries to focus on between 2025 and 2028 are:
- Buildings for Mission
