. . . in the middle of Life . . .
we live within a past winding down
and another future begun.
Be an advocate for the not yet.
Like individuals in need of a blessing, congregations can get confused, depressed, disorganized, or simply off-center for any number of reasons clergy malfeasance, disputed mission, demographic changes, death of a key leader, theological differences, and so many more. A pause and reorientation beyond their usual processes and resources is needed. During this transitional interim time an intentional process is helpful to:
- remember past blessings
- implement a new beginning
- energize lay leadership
- renew religious-tradition roots
- prepare for new pastoral leadership
With training from the Interim Ministry Network, rostered with the United Methodist Transitional/Interim Ministry Specialists (TIMS), and 6-1/2 years of sucessful intentional transitional/interim experience in three pastoral settings,
I am available for consultation regarding intentional ministry.
Note your circumstance and contact information. We will be in touch to see what can be worked out.
