Faith Communities in Transition
Every parish and mission has a different experience of what it is like when a Rector, Vicar, or Priest-in-Charge departs. Currently, we are working on creating different roadmaps to match the various experiences rather than continuing with a one-size fits all transition process. We are also curating a reading list that can be helpful for your communities and will have resources to help you along the way.
More information to come this spring!
