Mary Parmer, a congregational coach and speaker who serves as the director of "Gathering of Leaders" which empowers young clergy, and a consultant to diocesan newcomer ministries across the nation, will be speaking about tools and resources to form a systematic, intentional newcomer ministry. Also speaking will be Linda Grenz, the Diocese Canon to the Ordinary, who has spent much of her career as a consultant as well. Linda will share her Open Doors program and ideas for how to move from being a welcoming church to an inviting church.
Breakout sessions include: • Practicality of welcoming newcomers • Open Doors – Inviting Families to Church • They’re Here, Now What? • Using your facilities hospitably • Feeding with food, nourishing the spirit.
This could be a helpful program at this point in the life of St. Paul's. We are excited to be participating. Learn more about the Hospitality for Evangelism workshop at the Diocese Learn and Lead page.
