Do you want to learn how to transform your congregation?
For the second year in a row, our region has a marvelous opportunity: 40 training slots in the leadership training programs offered by Kansas Leadership Center in Wichita. If you want to make progress on something you care about, grow your leadership skills, aid your congregation and the region in addressing the adaptive challenges we face then this training is for you.
Your church will benefit most by sending teams of 3-4, one of whom is probably your pastor. You will also benefit by identifying a challenge on which you want to make progress. Plan to focus 90 days on the process: pre-work, the training and its application, beginning 21 days before your event.
In addition to congregational teams, CCK plans to send interested staff, moderators, and other regional leaders. Training sessions fill fast and registration early in the year is encouraged.
The KLC Partnership Grant pays tuition only. In November the CCK Executive Committee will consider a recommendation from the Kansas Bible Chair Task Force for a grant to reimburse books, housing, and meals for those who take part. The CCK Moderator team, in consultation with regional staff, will review grant applications and select participants.
