Faith Leaders For Such a Time as This with Cheryl Bear and Kim Uyede-Kai

Beloved,

Today, we are very excited to be launching registration for LeaderShift's inhouse program "Faith Leaders for Such a Time as This". We've offered this session before - four times! - and those who have taken it have been moved by the power of community and reflection in the intentional group setting. This October and November session is facilitated by Cheryl Bear and Kim Uyede-Kai who will invite you into dedication to the essential practices of faith: to attend to the life and faith of our community, to listen for the Spirit within the challenges and opportunities of our context, and to honour the wisdom of our traditions. In everything we hear the call to right relations.   

Faithfully,
Allison

In July and August LeaderShift hosted a number of skilled and faithful leaders from United Church of Canada communities. Their job was to offer wisdom, guidance and moral support to church leaders navigating in-person, online and hybrid worship experiences. We are extremely thankful to the workshop leaders and grateful for all you who attended being able to access these free sessions! Recordings of the workshops are being added to the Tech Tools and Testimony page on our website - check back often for updates and videos.

Faithfully,

The LeaderShift Team

More free sessions, this August - from LeaderShift & United Online

Hello Friends!

This is a quick Friday afternoon post to let you know that four August sessions are now ready for your registration -- Tech, Tools and Testimony is a free workshop series aiming to equip you for worship with (and without) online technologies in the 'vaccinated/open-again' era of COVID-19:

  1. "Where can we find some inspiration for people offering creative hybrid models?" Aug 18

  2. "We’re building a system from the ground up — what technology should we be looking at?" also Aug 18

  3. "How Can I Offer a Hybrid Model with Poor / No Internet?" Aug 19

  4. And BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND, "We've Decided to Keep Using Zoom. How Can We Do This Most Effectively?" Aug 20

Also - every Wednesday morning through the summer join Rev Andria Irwin or guests for relaxed "What's Next?" conversations with colleagues about, well - what's next. Bring any of your pressing questions around a shift to integrated inperson / online ministry. Technical questions, theological questions and questions like "how can I convince people to volunteer?" are all on the table. 10:30am - 12pm PT / 11:30am - 1pm MT each Wednesday through the summer, on Zoom. Click the link above to request the Zoom link to join.
