The Flourishing Congregations Summit introduced congregations to several positive change processes. These are methods of exploring and moving ahead with changes while focusing on the congregation’s strengths, positive actions and affirming language. The Center’s mission is to help Indiana congregations find and use the best resources to face their challenges. Serving northeast Indiana congregations are (pictured above) Brian Witwer, director of the northeast office, and Eunita Sullivan, administrative assistant.
Center staff are happy to talk to you about positive changes resources. Contact the Center office nearest you.
