Bridging the Gap: How Transition Consultants Support Congregations

Join the Interim Ministry Association on Sep 18, 2023, 10am PDT/MST, 11am MDT, for a free webinar on Transition Consulting provided by the Interim Ministry Association. Learn how these specially trained facilitators help congregations navigate the interim period between pastors and the training required to become one.

Navigating the interim period between pastors can be a complex and challenging time for congregations. Recognizing this, the Interim Ministry Association is introducing a new approach known as Transition Consulting. A webinar on Monday, Sep 18, 2023, aims to shed light on this novel process.

Transition Consultants are not interim pastors, but rather experienced clergy or church leaders who've undergone specialized training. These consultants work alongside Interim Pastors and transition teams to guide congregations during these pivotal times. Their mission is to discern the unique identity and calling of a church, adapting intentional interim ministry principles to meet specific needs.

The free virtual event will include an overview of Transition Consulting, highlighting the unique skills and training required to become a Transition Consultant, and how they support congregations preparing to call a new pastor. Whether you're a church leader, clergy, or simply interested in the transitional dynamics of a church, this is a unique opportunity to understand how churches can be effectively guided through periods of change.
