The Center for Parish Leadership Offers Key Parish Leader Support
Parishes have to
help people fall in
love again with
church - not as
an Institution, but
as a living
community of
faith. - Mary Testin
Through a collaborative
planning process, we  
help you discover your
unique Mission and the
governance structure
that will enable you to
achieve your ministry
outcomes.
We work with you to
develop customized
training in leadership
skills and best
practices that support
effective ministry
formation, planning,
and implementation.
We provide or help you
design unique spiritual
growth opportunities
(retreats, days of
reflection, etc.)  for your
church leaders that will
nourish their  life-long
faith journey.
We present periodic
leadership gatherings
that present effective
best-practices and
allow participants to
collaborate on key
issues facing your
church.

Good news Parish Leadership

This book provides a practical
knowledge base that is an effective
resource for today's parish staff and
leadership. It is an easy read that offers
examples and guidelines for parish

guide for parish staff and leaders in
today's modern parish environment.

? The Right Question ?
?
When new members join
your parish, ask this
introspective question:

"As you considered
joining our parish, what
were the top three
reasons that you decided
to join?"
