The Ministry Staff Seminar
January 31 – February 3, 2009
This seminar is designed for those who serve in staff settings: Associates in Ministry, Diaconal Minister, Assistant and Associate pastors, music directors, youth and family ministers, parish nurses, etc. The focus of this event is to explore the unique challenges and exploring the authority of staff. This is really one of the few places where attention is given to the development of what we might call “career associates” who don’t feel like they must aspire to be the senior pastor but rather can excel as good members of a large staff.
The Transition Seminar
February 3-4, 2009
This seminar is offered between the Head of Staff and Ministry Seminars to those persons who have recently moved from one ministry setting to another.
The Head of Staff Seminar
February 5-8, 2009
This seminar continues to be well received by those newly called as senior/head of staff pastors. The focus continues to be on the role that the head of staff plays in visionary leadership of a congregation and guiding the development of a congregational staff team. The evaluations each year suggest that the content of the seminar, the informal conversations with colleagues, the worship and the very setting itself are shaping these head of staff pastors for their unique ministries.
