Canada Ministries and the Vine are hosting Congregations in Transition, a training workshop that will help 30 participants gain skills in helping congregations that are going through times of transition such as closing, amalgamating or clustering. The December event will feature American Alice Mann, a consultant with The Alban Institute who specializes in congregational development, planning and visioning, and size transition.
Participants include regional staff, as well as ministers and laypersons who have the time and interest to be a coach for presbyteries and congregations, and who can function as small “teams” along with regional staff to help out when needed.
