Your Eastern Synod Team is committed to providing wrap-around love and accompaniment to Congregations, Ministry Areas and Communities in transition!
As we are reminded in John’s Gospel, when Jesus appears to the disciples in the Upper Room, Jesus breathes God’s peace on those in his midst. Jesus does not send the disciples out because they have all the right answers or because they are fully prepared with a clear roadmap for the days ahead. Rather, Jesus sends the disciples out immediately into a liminal, in-between time.
The church exists in the same liminal, in-between time. We too have God’s peace, God’s love, God’s Spirit, and God’s shocking grace.
We are called to be God’s church in our communities.
The Pathways for Ministry program begins by giving our communities the freedom to dream! Then we look to the Rostered and Lay Leadership needs. Finally, we address the corner stones, considering how our buildings can support the ministry to which we have been called.
