Preparing for a Post-COVID world  (PRG Team Webinar)

August 25, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

The Post-Covid Re-entry Group (PRG) invites all clergy, lay leaders, and PRG team members to join our next webinar on Wednesday, August 25, 2021 at 1:00 PM

Featured Speaker – The Rev. Rachel Gilmore

Most churches have an annual back to church campaign that launches each fall to energize and regather the congregation after the slower summer season. This global pandemic has changed the way we do church and this fall, we need to re-launch in remarkably different ways.  Join us in August for a relaunch webinar where we’ll look at guiding principles as we plan for the fall, the new teams we need to have in place and how we can find margins in the midst of all of this for much-needed self-care after an exhausting year!
