SUMMARY:Fishbowl – Cross Generational Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Youth and Non – Youth Fishbowl Gathering \nRegional Councils of ARW\, HF and WOW in partnership with The Hub and Trinity UC Kitchener-\nTuesday Sept 26\, 2023\, evening \nBackground: Post-COVID\, Youth leaders struggle to put together groups. A message often heard from youth in the church is that what’s being offered doesn’t work for them. Being an intercultural church includes finding ways to bridge communication between different age groups/generations. \nGoal– To offer a forum that brings together youth and non-youth in the church– a forum that allows the two groups to hear one another and be heard by one another\, and to consider what might be the Spirit’s invitation to the church for youth ministry at this time. \nFISHBOWL PROCESS: \nEight Youth (teens to twenty-somethings) and eight Non-Youth (40s-90+) from WOW\, HF and ARW Regional Councils will gather via Zoom. \n\nDiscussion questions will invite each to share and listen to experiences of their own youth faith formation\, and hopes and challenges for youth ministry then and now.\nOn each question\, using the Zoom spotlight feature to focus on one group of eight:\n\nYouth will invite one another to share\, while the Non-Youth listen.\nPlaces will be switched\, and the Non-Youth will invite one another to share while the Youth listen.\nFor some questions\, the order might be reversed\, with Non-Youth sharing first\n\n\nAfter several rounds of sharing in separate groups\, Youth and Non-Youth will have an opportunity to reflect together as one group.\n\nEach group will be invited to reflect on what they have heard and consider possible next steps. \nParticipants will be given questions for reflection and feedback\, to be submitted in writing following the session. \nThis is a cross-cultural listening event\, and a pilot project. This session will not focus on problem solving or planning. The focus of this event is to listen and learn about one another as a first step of re-visioning youth ministry in ARW\, HF and WOW in this post-pandemic time. \nAn HONORARIUM of $105 is available for participants who are not otherwise paid for their time in this discussion. \nTo apply\, complete the Application Form : \nhttps://forms.office.com/r/3qf3JJtxt6 \nApplication deadline Sept 12\, 2023 \n\nFor more information contact: \nThérèse Samuel tsamuel@united-church.ca \nKathy Douglas kdouglas@united-church.ca \nAdam Cresswell – hubleadership@gmail.com \nBethany Herlihey- bethanyherlihey@gmail.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

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.
