I just received the write-up from Guy Wasko, the affinity group leader who really had it on his heart to create a group to meet throughout NYMC for healing, ideas and support. This group will gather at 1 pm, and again at 4:30 on Friday afternoon–and will continue to meet throughout the conference. Times will be posted every day–and all groups are open to everyone. Come once–or every time!
Affinity Group for Youth Workers Dealing With Difficult Church LeadersFrom “Dream Teams” to leadership teams we never want to dream of, we’ve probably all experienced a variety of leaders, leadership styles and conflict when it comes to church boards, committees or Sr. Pastors. It’s also safe to say that many of us are probably still carrying the scars from past experiences (maybe even current ones). This isn’t a gripe session or your chance to play an overzealous game of “my pastor is worse than your pastor.” This group will be about creating a safe place where others know your pain, recognize your scars and we can journey together toward healing and restoration. Maybe you just want to dip your toe in the water or maybe you’re ready to jump in head first, either way, join us on an adventure toward healing and creating a workable plan in dealing with difficult church leadership.
