 Challenging Churches to go deeper as Disciples of Jesus

"This is not a program, but a process of renewal, growth, mission and organizational change."

 

Under the direction of the Evangelism and Renewal Commission, Vital Congregational Life, is an ongoing process of transformation being offered to local congregations. So far, over 80 churches have participated in this process which is led by Rev. Paul Nickerson of the Conference Staff, and by trained Evangelism Coaches throughout the Conference. In this process, your church can;

 

•  Look at its strengths and areas for improvement

•  Examine and implement a core discipleship process of spiritual growth.

 

Out of this growth can then come any number of possibilities that you customize to your church setting. These options include:

•  Innovative worship

•  Small group ministry

•  Leadership development

•  Visioning process

•  Reading the Community around us

•  Spiritual growth strategies

•  Organizational change

•  Mission Assessment tool

 

If you would like to be part of a Cluster Group or need individual coaching, please contact Rev. Paul Nickerson at nickersonp@macucc.org.

 

Also, if you would like to be trained as an Evangelism Coach, there is ongoing training available. Please email Rev. Nickerson for details as well.
