Clergy Conference: The Heart of the Leader

Sunday, May 1 – Tuesday, May 3

Schoodic Institute, Winter Harbor

Brought to you by the Clergy Formation Committee

Join your clergy peers and the Rev. Jay Sidebotham at the beautiful Schoodic Institute in Winter Harbor for our 2022 Clergy Conference focused on the heart of the leader. In our time together, we will focus on the heart of the leader, using the Letter to the Ephesians — along with learnings from RenewalWorks — to explore the role of spiritual leaders in our congregations, to consider ways that those leaders can be sustained (especially in the wake of Covid), for the sake of the vitality of our parishes.
