In a time of tight resources and continuing economic uncertainty, how do people of faith keep a sense of dynamism and hope as we seek to strengthen our own congregations and to minister to the needs of the broader community?
During the weekend, Luther Snow, author of The Power of Asset Mapping and a nationally-recognized leader in the Asset-Based Community Development movement, will help us to answer this question through a series of workshops for pastors, lay leaders, denominational staff, and leaders of other faith-based organizations. We will explore strategies for recognizing and deploying our resources to revitalize our own congregations and organizations and to build sustainable partnerships to serve the broader community.
Friday: The Macro View (for pastors, judicatory leaders, and staff of faith-based organizations)
Faith in Action
- Mobilizing volunteers around faith-based action
- A Translation Guide for Congregations and Service Agencies
- Advanced skills in leading partnerships, collaborations, and
networks
- Hands-on practice in the situations that matter most to you
Saturday: The Micro View (for lay/clergy congregational leadership teams)
Thriving Congregations - Like Yours!
- Recognizing and building on the great things God is already doing in our midst
- Growing success in stewardship, outreach, and engagement
- Advanced skills for leading groups - positively
- Hands-on practice in the situations that matter most to you
The weekend will be co-sponsored by Moravian Theological Seminary, the Moravian Church Northern Province, the Allentown Mayor’s Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, and regional offices of the, the Episcopal Church, the Lutheran Church, the Presbyterian Church USA, the United Church of Christ, and the United Methodist Church. Further details will be available soon. |
