Year 5 interview a Religious Leader

What sort of person is a religious leader?

Before lunch, Reverend Robin came in to answer some questions about being a religious leader as we (Year 5) are learning about religious leaders from different faiths in RE.
He looked a little nervous and said it was almost as tough as his last job interview! He gave us plenty to think about.

Questions about leadership
B: What are the three most important qualities of any leader? Reverend Robin: Well you need to have a strong sense of ‘God’. I also have to support people in the congregation. You have to allow anyone to come in and feel loved. M: Can anyone be a religious leader? Reverend Robin: Yes! Anyone! It’s not a job. It’s a calling… I was called by God.
Questions about day to day work
Ro: Who do you work for? Reverend Robin: The Methodist Church employ me but I also work for God. El: Is being a religious leader hard work? Reverend Robin: Absolutely! I only get 1 day off a week. If there’s an emergency on my day off, I still have to go in. I work about 65 hours a week. An: What is the most important part of your job as a religious leader? Reverend Robin:Being there for people when things are hard for them. I go out and visit them there’s also joyful stuff like weddings. Sadly, I go to see people who are dying, but that can be joyful for them, which you may find surprising. Fr: What happens in a typical day? Reverend Robin: No day is the same as another day and that’s my favourite thing about the job. I wake up thinking: what’s gonna happen? I have lots of meetings with different people. I also listen to students at Brighton University and tonight I have a big meeting. I’m very busy! Nin: Do you meet leaders from different religions? Reverend Robin: I haven’t got involved in Brighton but in Birmingham I did get involved with leaders from other religions. Nis: Do religious leaders get paid for their work? Reverend Robin: Yes I get a stipend. This is a small amount per month. I also get a house to live in – some houses are lovely and some aren’t quite so lovely!
