reconnect & reframe for the future

the words 'reconnect & reframe' are large with a graphic of a church on the left and a graphic of a tree with silhouettes of people from the shoulders up as leaves. Below text reads: 'a series of conversations on our future sponsored by the diocese of Fredricton & Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island'

Faithfully living out God’s missional call today requires us to see ministry and congregational life in fresh ways. Join in a series of online conversations to discover how to reframe our perspectives and reconnect with our neighbours in order to grow and flourish.

reconnect & reframe is a learning and exploring partnership between the Diocese of Nova Scotia & Prince Edward Island and Diocese of Fredericton. Sessions are Thursdays evenings on ZOOM. Each includes a dynamic presentation on a particular theme, several local examples, followed by small group discussion. 

The first module, beginning January 26, is a four-part series on Collaborative Ministry Leadership. Learn how to build effective teams of laity and clergy, lead through liminal times, avoid burn-out, and creatively adapt. Includes practical case studies. 

Speakers for this first series include Diocesan Bishops Sandra Fyfe and David Edwards, as well as Rev. Dr. Heather McCance, Director of Pastoral Studies at Montreal Diocesan Theological College.

Collaborative Ministry Leadership runs January 26, February 2, February 9 and February 16.
