Special Interest Groups (SIGs)

Our Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are a gentle and welcoming way for our community to stay connected, deepen learning, and explore shared areas of interest together.

Each group offers a space for conversation, reflection, and mutual encouragement, supporting members to keep growing in their spiritual practice and ministry, in a way that feels both meaningful and accessible.

Held within the wider framework of professional integrity and standards, while creating space for collaboration, peer learning, and shared ministerial reflection.

In practice, this means ministers can meet meaningfully with one another, explore topics that matter in their work, and feel supported in their ongoing development, while continuing to uphold the values and expectations of ROSIM.

SIGs are shaped by the people who attend them. Some groups are led by a facilitator, while others are more collaborative and peer-led, with members taking turns to bring topics, questions, or themes for discussion. Numbers may vary from session to session, but the intention remains the same: to create a steady, supportive space where people can meet, share, and feel accompanied.

Ministers are also warmly encouraged to propose new SIGs where there is a shared interest and a clear benefit to professional and ministerial growth.

If you’d like to join a SIG and you’re a member of ROSIM, you’re warmly invited to explore the groups listed below and find the one that speaks to you. You don’t need to be an expert, just willing to show up with curiosity, openness, and a desire to connect.
