SUMMARY:Webinars for Congregational Wellbeing: Consensus Building 101
DESCRIPTION:We are surrounded by a larger culture where issues continually divide us and the majority rules. While we may have come to accept this reality as the best option for governing a democracy\, many of our churches have been crippled by divisive winner-take-all votes on sensitive issues like ONA\, racism\, and how to spend the endowment. This leaves many members of the Body of Christ feeling unheard\, hurting\, and in some cases so angry they leave altogether.\n\n\nSurely we can do better than that. Surely we are called to do better than that. As followers of Jesus’ gospel we are called to make decisions together in ways that build up our communities of faith instead of blowing them apart.\n\nWelcome to Consensus Building 101 – an introduction to a more cooperative model of decision making centered around respect\, equality\, sharing power and sharing responsibility. The conversations are hard and those hard conversations can create more community instead of a divided one. Join Rev. Becky David and ACM Rev. Kendy Miller to learn about healthier ways to make decisions\, what is consensus\, and why it’s important. The webinar will happen on Zoom on June 2nd at 6:00pm CT and finish up by 8:00pm CT. Information on how to access the webinar will be available after you register.\n\nConsensus Building 101 is part of a series of four webinars focused on congregational well-being. The next two will happen in September and November (more details coming later!). If someone from your congregation is present at all four of the webinars (doesn’t have to be the same person every time) your congregation will receive a package of Conference swag!

SUMMARY:Contemplative Practice Group
DESCRIPTION:Often we try to slow our pace a bit during summertime. If you are wanting to practice stillness\, and silence with other clergy in our conferences\, consider starting your weeks with us in prayer for one another and in communion with the Holy Spirit as we hold space for one another in contemplation. \nThese gatherings will be hosted by ACM Rev. Kendy Miller on Mondays\, June 6th through July 18th (except for July 4th)\, from 8:00-9:00am CT. Please join her practicing contemplative prayer so that our actions of justice may stem from the root of Christ’s love. You’re welcome to join even if you haven’t made it to every session or have to miss sessions in the future. \nThe event is free and is open to clergy\, Members in Discernment\, and christian educators in the UCC. You will receive the Zoom information after registering. Questions about the event? Contact Rev. Miller. Questions about registration? Contact Aidan Spencer.

SUMMARY:Specialized Minister Boundary Awareness Training
DESCRIPTION:This training\, hosted by Revs. Tara Barber and Stephen Boyd\, is geared towards clergy in the New England Region\, it is open to ministers serving in specialized settings throughout the United Church of Christ. Serving in specialized setting requires particular attention to boundaries within the ministry setting and home church that are challenging and different from those serving as local church pastors. This training will focus on matters that relate specifically to issues that these ministers face\, providing opportunities for clergy to reflect on best practices and growth in their practice of ministry. Tuesday\, June 21st\, 6:00-9:00pm ET. \nThis training has been approved by all Committees on Ministry in our conferences for ministers serving in specialized settings. It will NOT be approved as boundary training if taken by congregational leaders within a parish. For other boundary training opportunities\, visit our Boundary Awareness page. \nRegister for the training now: https://ucc.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYvduCtqDsrGtHLhcSEWiZOvl7GVWjic3NE
