Dr. Joel Thiessen is the Professor of Sociology and Director of Flourishing Congregations Institute at Ambrose University.
You may have also encountered Joel through a variety of presentations he has made to committees in our Synod over the past few years.
In today's newsletter from the Flourishing Congregations Institute, Joel talks about 'Recruiting, Training and Retaining Volunteers".
This is an important topic, and one that many of our congregations are also grappling with.
He asks: "What is it about your church's identity and culture that would draw persons to want to volunteer in your institution?"
