SUMMARY:Ask An Expert
DESCRIPTION:We’re trying something new. We’re introducing an Ask An Expert series in partnership with the General Council Office. You ask the questions\, and we’ll provide the expertise. \nWho are the experts? Well\, it depends on the topic and staff availability. \nMaybe you want to know more about the insurance partnership between the GCO and Communities of Faith. Or what you do when the local newspaper calls (or when you want to get a good story out). Or what the new government relations officer does. Or what the cost-of-living-adjustment is. \nIt’s kind of like a Pick-Your-Own-Adventure book. Here’s how it works: \n1. You send us your questions here: https://forms.office.com/r/q7UM9spU9z \n2. We find the expert who can answer them. \n3. We all tune in on Wednesday September 18th\, 7-8 p.m. by Zoom here: https://united-church.zoom.us/j/89972136949 \n4. As many questions will be answered as can be within the allotted time. Unanswered questions will carry over to the next session\, or we’ll answer them on our Regional Council Facebook group. \n5. Tough questions are okay. We’ll do our best to answer them\, and if we can’t on the spot\, we’ll follow up with the right information. \nSo\, pick your adventure. Will it be insurance? Or grants? Climate justice? Governance? Media relations? Government relations? Global partnerships? Or something else? \nYou pick. Ask your question here: https://forms.office.com/r/q7UM9spU9z.  Join us on Wednesday September 18th at 7 p.m. to get an answer in real time. Don’t have a question right now? Listeners welcome! \nThis session will be facilitated by: Michelle Owens

SUMMARY:You can do hard things
DESCRIPTION:You can do hard things: \nHow to Preach on Stewardship and Talk about Money\n\nA workshop for ministry personnel and those who lead worship in their communities of faith.10am-12pm on Friday\, May 24 at Port Elgin United Church Stewardship\, like prayer\, worship\, or loving service\, is a critical aspect of our lives of faith. The Bible is chock full of passages about how money and wealth harm people and communities\, and how generosity liberates us from those corrupting influences. As preachers\, we have an amazing opportunity to tell people that they belong to God\, not their bank accounts\, and because of that\, they can make a difference by sharing their gifts. Yet so many of us avoid talking about money. The truth is\, whether or not we discuss it\, the people in our congregations are thinking about money all the time. How do I decide how much should I give? What should I spend it on? How do I raise generous kids and grand-kids? Whether they have a little or a lot\, money takes up a lot of spiritual and emotional space. So how can we deepen faith and generosity as spiritual leaders?\n\nIn this workshop\, participants will:\n\n\nProcess all the fears and worries around preaching on money (no\, you’re not just preaching for your salary!)\nLearn techniques for stewardship preaching that will encourage and inspire\nLook at some of Jesus’ messages on money and talk about the good news that could be used in a sermon.\nBe introduced to resources that can give you more confidence when talking about money and ministry\n\n For more information\, please contact your Stewardship Support Staff\, Brenna Baker\, at bbaker@united-church.ca\n\nPort Elgin United Church840 Bruce St\, Port Elgin\, ON N0H 2C2\nGoogle Map\n\nRegistration Link:\n\nhttps://regionalcouncil789.formstack.com/forms/you_can_do_hard_things

SUMMARY:HF Retired Clergy Online Gathering
DESCRIPTION:On behalf of Horseshoe Falls Regional Council\, the Human Resources Commission has been seeking to redress a lack of connection between the regional council and retirees since the dissolution of presbyteries. This has included creating a contact list of retirees in our region and finding a connection point in the structure. Happily\, the Human Resources Commission has included relating to retirees as part of its mandate and our Minister for Pastoral Support\, the Rev. Kevin Steeper\, will also serve as a resource in this effort.Our next step is to host a regional council wide online gathering: \n\nto connect with one another\,\nto explore how we all might best relate to one another;\nto listen to the ideas you may have for gatherings in smaller groupings and how the region might best support you.\n\nThere will be an opportunity for you to gather in geographic groupings to self-organize.From an earlier email to many of you\, we received a suggestion that we might invite a national staff person to join us at a gathering once a year to hear about the wider church and to answer questions you may have. General Secretary\, the Rev. Dr. Michael Blair\, has graciously agreed to be with us for part of our meeting to do just that.Save the Date!Join us on February 13\, 2024 from 10:00 to 11:30 a.m. online. Watch for the meeting link to come after the new year.We recognize that not everyone has online access. If you know of a colleague who would appreciate being present\, perhaps you could invite them to join  you.
