Partnering Consultations

  • Churches live in a swirling, changing world.  The Committee on Ministry is eager to partner with congregations that have heart to address adaptive change at a deep level.  Facilitators are made available to discuss substantive, transformational change – if the Session is willing to engage the conversation.  A fee is expected from the church even as the Presbytery is willing to fund a large portion of such important conversations.  For more information contact the moderator of the Committee on Ministry at [email protected]   or the General Presbyter.
