The Methodist Church engaging with Business Industry and Commerce






The conference in 2005 was at The Friars, Aylesford Kent when we spent time thinking about regeneration in the area and in the chaplains group.

Reports can be seen on this page as Interfaith Reflection, A trip round Kent, Regeneration and The Divided Cloak.

r u clear about nuclear? - was the dramatic theme for the MIBIC Chaplains Conference in 2004.

The aim was to find out about the generation of energy and to determine which method might be the most cost effective and safe for the future energy needs of the country.

The conference was based on the British Nuclear Fuels Limited facility at Summergrove Hall. We were reminded that this was an area which was severely hit by foot and mouth disease and ten miles away from the Sellafield Nuclear complex. We visited Sellafield and saw the THORP facility.
We heard about sustainable and alternative energy production and we mused about the alternatives and the life of this planet now and into the future.

Reports of some of these sessions and sessions of our previous conferences can also be found by checking the links on the left.

The conference in 2006 and was held in Prague, Czech Republic. This was a very different conference.

Regretably the publication of the reports of these three conferences were delayed. We can confirm that those who were involved in these conferences were affirmed in their work and encouraged in their intention to be - presence - and advocates of Christian values and ethics in the workplace.
