Description
“Christian education and formation ministry today can sometimes feel like
swimming upstream, navigating undercurrents and unforeseen challenges.
We want to help you thrive in ministry and get above those waters.
This workshop will explore how benefits as part of an employee
compensation package can be bridges over rough waters that lead to
wholeness and wellbeing in ministry. The Board of Pensions of the
Presbyterian Church USA works to support the holistic well-being of ministry
leaders, believing that physical, emotional, spiritual, vocational, and financial
health is all is part of “”loving self,”” which helps us love God and neighbor
well. We will also equip you to have the creative and collaborative
conversation with decision makers in your employment context as you
covenant compensation and benefits packages in both new and existing
calls.
This workshop will emphasize benefits (including new benefits as of 2025)
available to those who serve PC(USA) related churches and employers.
However, we welcome anyone who wants to explore how these concepts
impact their work in other denominational contexts.
