Being Well When You’re Weary

On May 11, our Christian Education & Leadership Development Team hosted a special Zoom workshop to help see us through the weariness brought on by the COVID-19 Pandemic and life in general.

This workshop is about the well-being of leaders in the church when we’re feeling stretched and exhausted. (This could include elders, ministers, staff, or key volunteers.) Many are feeling a general weariness. This online workshop seeks to acknowledge the complexity of our new, ongoing realities and offers guidance about how to be well in the midst of uncertainty.
It was a blessing for everyone involved.
