Intentional Formation in Your Congregation
EVENT DATE & DETAILSNote: The listed times for these workshops are in Central Time. The 6/3 listing takes place from 9AM – 3PM CT / 10AM – 4PM ET.
Churches live on week to week deadlines; but at the end of the year, we often stand back and wonder “how do all these weeks add up? Who are we becoming together in this family of faith?”
In this session, we’ll walk through a framework for identifying some of your congregational values, working to create pathways for formation, and curating resources and relationships that will form your congregation into a community where people say “yes” to God’s invitation.
