Leadership and Church Administration: Summertime
The Center for Leadership Excellence presents Summertime, a Leadership and Church Administration workshop with Laura Thompson and Carl Frazier. Engage with colleagues and explore strategies for preaching, planning, and programming during the summer months.“Summertime and the living is easy,” Clara sings to open Porgy and Bess. For many of our members, it may seem that way. But for clergy, summertime can be a mixed bag of low attendance, a drop off in participation, and decreased giving (unless one is serving a coastal appointment when summer can be your busiest time of the year). How does one make the most of summer days in preaching, planning, and programming? How does one keep a congregation engaged? Join us for this conversation.
From Prayer to Action—Now Is the Time!
Now is the time…Looking Inward, Living Outward with Daniel Wolpert highlights how spiritual practices can empower us to care for others and create communities of healing and justice. Rooted in Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, this Day of Learning calls us to turn inward in prayer so we can live outward in service and social transformation.
