Presbytery Transformation Grant

The Leadership Team is seeking a Presbytery Transformation Grant (PTG) from the General Assembly. A PTG, if received, would fund initiatives aimed at creating congregational renewal within all our Presbytery of Grand Canyon churches. The intent would be to lead ministry training events designed for ruling elders, teaching elders and other congregational leaders.
A Leadership Team task force met to brainstorm some possibilities but we need help - specifically, we need the voice of the presbytery meeting in plenary in Pinetop. We need your ideas. We need your hope and dreams. We need you to point us in the right direction.
            For my Presbytery Pastor’s Report in Pinetop, I am going to ask us to discuss the following questions in small groups
1.      What information, skills development or leadership training would be most helpful regarding the ministry areas listed below?
  • Promoting Congregational Evangelism
  • How to Lead through Change
  • Moving toward Multi-Cultural Ministry
  • Initiating Congregational Renewal
  • Missional Ministry
  • Ministering to Millennials
2.      Specifically, what is:
  • Information you would like to hear discussed?
  • Skill development on which you would like to focus?
  • Leadership training you would like to have?
  • Questions about one or more of the topics?
3.      Rank the above themes in order of priority from #1 (most important) to #5 (least important) as topics the presbytery should pursue for speakers, retreats and leadership training.
_____ Promoting Congregational Evangelism
_____ How to Lead through Change
_____ Moving toward Multi-Cultural Ministry
_____ Initiating Congregational Renewal
_____ Missional Ministry
_____ Ministering to Millennials

 
4.      What are three goals you personally recommend the Leadership Team set for a Presbytery Transformation Grant / Project?

 
Grace to you today and always,
Brad Munroe
