Ministry Outside the Box Class
2024-10-29 13:00 - 15:00 | online
You know the way we’ve always done it isn’t working anymore, but how do we dream new dreams that actually work? How do we get the committee and congregation to see this too? In this 3-session workshop on how to assess your current offerings, consider what God might be calling you to do (that will work in your context), and implement new formation opportunities. This is a hands-on class with practical tools, and you will leave with concrete written next steps.

Rebecca Guzman is a Certified Educator serving as the Director of Spiritual Formation at South Mecklenburg Presbyterian Church in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Jessie Kuehner is a Certified Educator who has served churches but has also been a consultant to churches and educators for 5+ years.
These 2 have been a dynamic pair that have worked together for years. There have been multiple times when Rebecca finishes what Jessie is saying when Jessie has an “oh squirrel!” moment.
