Faith and Work in Staffordshire and the Black CountryBill Mash says: "We haven't thought of a catchy title yet, but we are hoping to form a group of people in our area who are, as CHRISM puts it, are 'active within their own faith communities' and who seek 'to champion ministry in and through secular employment.' My predecessor as Team Leader of the Black Country Urban Industrial Mission drew a small group together, calling them 'Faith and Work Representatives'. It is on that we would wish to build. The group will be active, spreading the message about Christian presence and involvement in the workplace. It will also be supportive, discussing faith and work issues, the workplace with all its potential and problems, and the tensions which can arise where people combine two roles. Members would use their own contacts to keep this on the agenda at church and parish level, encouraging and equipping Christians to express their faith in and through their work. Please contact me, Revd. Bill Mash, by email or by telephone on 01902 710407 if you live or work in Staffordshire or the Black Country (Wolverhampton, Walsall, Dudley and Sandwell) and would like more information."
