By registering you agree to the following

Confidentiality Agreement:

I agree to maintain and respect the confidentiality of all information that is shared by group participants.  I will not share individual conversations or situations that are shared by other members of this group.   I understand and agree that failure to maintain confidentiality will result in my being asked to leave this group.

Group Norms:

I will trust that God has gifted me with wisdom to share and with wisdom to gain from others.

When sharing I will attempt to put situations into broad questions and not provide details about individuals.  I will strive not use the names of ministers, employees, or congregation members.   For example, I will ask about a situation. If not sure how to ask a question, I can private message Micol Cottrell or the host and they will help frame the question in broad terms, or without context of the church, minister, and staff.  Note:   you can always contact Micol Cottrell MCottrell@united-church.ca with situations that you need to talk about and in that conversation can be more candid.

I will respect that what others share is confidential and will not share that information outside of the group.   This allows for learning drawn from individual experiences.

I will appreciate that the questions people ask may not be about a situation that they are facing as an M&P Committee at this moment, rather a question for future learning.

I will respect that different M&P committees work differently depending on context.

I will be gentle with myself and with others trusting in God’s Spirit in leading us to learn together.
