28th Annual Best Practices in Transitional Interim Ministry (TIM)


ree



Join us for a weekend designed to encourage, equip, and energize leaders navigating ministry in times of change. The Best Practices in Transitional Interim Ministry gathering offers practical tools, honest conversations, and shared wisdom to help you see new possibilities where challenges feel overwhelming. Come ready to learn, connect, and return home with renewed hope for the work God is doing in your church and community.


Managing the anxieties, pressures, stresses, and unique existential fears surrounding declining congregations is a highly complex and often overwhelming prospect. To make it worse, as pastors and District leaders, we're having to manage our own personal angst about them too. Frequently, this leads us to react with our own, "one way, crisis-driven" thinking. Breaking this cycle begins by discovering what God may be up to in these transitional times. That is the focus of this year's Best Practices in Transitional Interim Ministry event. Whether you're a Settled Pastor, District leader, or a TIM Practitioner, facing and addressing these types of challenges as God-created opportunities is the starting point for revitalization. Where others can only see problems, seeing possibilities and opportunities, instead of roadblocks, is essential for entering into and ministering to these challenging systems. Consider: What if God is shaking things up to make way for a new and even better chapter of Mission and Ministry?


As always, Best Practices in TIM is not only for TIM Practitioners but for all parish pastors, Circuit Visitors, Regional VPs and any District staff looking for real ministry solutions. We know the value of networking and the power of shared collaboration. We may not have all the answers, but we're definitely asking the right questions and that's the foundation for all adaptive learning, growth and solutions!
