Congregational Peace Health Check

On Earth Peace is launching a pilot program called the Congregational Peace Health Checkup and we want to invite you to participate! The Peace Health Checkup is a unique opportunity to join others from your congregation in reflecting on how practices of Christ’s peace are reflected in your congregation’s ministry--and to identify for yourselves some areas where you might be excited to grow.

We’re happy to share the following information about structure and schedule, to help your congregation consider whether you would like to participate.  Each checkup consists of two three-hour webcam meetings, with prep and followup before, between, and after the meetings. During the meetings, members of your congregation will consider how it’s going with a variety of peace-connected themes and areas in your congregation, for example: Biblical Foundations, Leadership Development, Conflict & Communication, Decisionmaking, Service Ministries, Justice Ministries (and more).  The pilot program is described in more detail in this two-page document, prepared for you to share with your congregation.  We are prepared to launch pilot groups in January, February, and April. After reviewing the detailed program information, please consider the start date that works best for you, and be in touch to learn what slots are still available.  To learn more, get your questions answered, or start the process, please schedule a 30-minute conversation with Matt Guynn at your earliest convenience. Here are three ways to do so: Visit Matt’s booking calendar and request a time  2) Email [email protected] 3) Call 503-465-4557
