REMINDER!
What does it mean to be 'rostered' in 2023?
For almost two years, Okay What's Next? online events have been exploring the edges of what church in our changing times is and can be. Following a successful focus on lay leadership, our next event investigates how the role of the rostered leader has changed and is changing, as we all face unforeseen shifts in church worship and fellowship. Please note that both Lay and Rostered Leaders are welcomed and encouraged to attend!
With a panel of clergy (Revs Anne Anderson, Tuula van Gasbeek, and Katherine Gohm) we will share in our own challenges, hopes and dreams for the evolving church. Join us Wednesday February 1st at 6:30 pm for engaging conversation.
