With the impending election cycle amplifying a politically divided nation, worldwide turmoil around issues of warfare and justice, and the struggle for many ministries to respond to a culturally polarized landscape, 2024 is shaping up to be a year full of challenges for ministry leaders.
How can we stay emotionally and spiritually grounded in order to care well for our congregations, our families, and ourselves? And how can we avoid the burnout (physical and emotional exhaustion) and flameout (moral failure) that are all too often the result of seasons of challenge and stress for ministry leaders? We need vital tools to build resilience.
You are invited to join us for a Ministry Leader Gathering on "Avoiding Burnout Amidst the Challenges of 2024" with Dave Wiedis, J.D., M.S.C.C. and Laura Nagy, M.S., R.D., L.D.N., C.P.T.
In this interactive and collaborative gathering, we will:
explore the phenomena of burnout and flameout specifically as it relates to vocational ministry,
identify warning signs that we may need to step back and tend to our mental and emotional wellbeing, and
walk away with practical tools to stay healthy and sustain our impact in 2024.
Wednesday, April 17 | 10:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.
Cedar Crest Bible Fellowship
1151 S Cedar Crest Blvd, Allentown, PA 18103
This event is free, and lunch is included.
Ministry Leader Gatherings are focused on the needs of those who serve in ministry leadership, but these events are open to all, including lay ministry leaders, elders, para-church staff, and others in leadership positions outside of ministry. Walk-ins are welcome as space allows, but please register early to reserve your spot (and your lunch)!
