Coming Soon!

• Third quarter studies now underway!
• The MtE Events Calendar

Advance Notice

• Monday Movies at the Nova. This group got off to a shaky start last week! Those there thought we’d continue to give it a go, trialling the first Monday of the month from September (Monday September 1). As the weekly movie schedule is only published on the prior Thursday, advice of movie and time chosen will be late in that week, but will aim in the time zone of a 1000-1030 start, with coffee/toasties in the Nova’s own cafe for those interested to stay and discuss the film.
• Quarterly Conversation on the Quarterly Essay: Friday October 17, 11.00–12.30, in the library at the Center for Theology and Ministry.

Wesley Centre

MtE is a sponsor of the Wesly Centre

In this conversation, Jenny Macklin will discuss the values that animated her political career, and the lessons she learned about how good policy happens.

Our third quarter 2025 study groups will use Rowan Williams’ Passions of the soul.

FROM THE PUBLISHER

MtE’s study groups seek to be ecumenical in participation, with people from MtE, Parkville’s St Carthages, Carlton’s Church of All Nations, St Mary’s Anglican and Kew Uniting Church often being among those participating. 

At least two online (Zoom) groups are planned on Wednesday evenings (7.45pm) and Friday afternoons (1.30PM), for six-seven weeks (one week per chapter).

These studies will commence on Wed Aug 13 and Friday Aug 15.

Participants should get their own copies of the book. Amazon will be the quickest, among other places .
