A Snapshot of the LEAD Journey

A three-year journey of transformation to

deepen discipleship; inspire relationships with

God, each other and our neighbors; and to be

the church in ways we would never have

imagined without this intentional time of

listening, learning and adapting..

The journey includes six seminars, 30

coaching sessions and our most up-to-date

resources designed to support your work as

you follow Christ into your unique future. The

journey is a path forward, not a program.
