Leadership training component on spiritual formation was exactly what I hoped it would be and also led me to excellent leader resource for one of our offerings for spiritual growth at FUMC-FV in 2010. Many thanks to leaders and organizers for a most worthwhile evening!
Great SPRC workshop last night led by Timothy Russell. Our committee members picked up a couple of great ideas from Russell and participants that we’d like to implement this year. One is the importance of visioning, and establishing a staffing plan that integrates with that overall church vision. Also noted was the importance of sharing high-level aspects of the pastor’s annual evalution – areas where we feel the pastor needs to focus in the coming year, and what we’ll need from the congregation to help make that happen. Thanks for the time and effort that went into this event, and a big thanks to Asbury for hosting.
