Seminars in Church Business Administration

ATTENTION CHURCH ADMINISTRATORS, PASTORS, TREASURERS,


COMMUNICATORS, OFFICERS, AND MEMBERS!


Union Presbyterian Seminary’s Leadership Institute offers seminars in Church Business Administration. Whether you plan to pursue certification as a Church Administrator through our partnership with The Church Network, or you are already certified and need to take some classes for retention, or you just want to take a few seminars to see how to better serve in the administrative functions of your congregation, you are welcome to join us!

The program consists of eight seminars in

Financial management (2 seminars)


Human resources management (2 seminars)


Legal and tax issues


Communications


Facilities and property management


Strategic planning


 

Take all eight core classes toward certification, or take four, or just take one or two that interest you.

In addition, for those seeking certification (or not), we will offer a separate day for the four required CEU classes:

IT Basics


IT Trends


Theology and Ethics of Church Administration


 Self-Care for Church Administrators.

We are excited this year to have a great lineup of seminar leaders, including nationally known lawyer/CPA team Frank and Elaine Sommerville, on both our Richmond and Charlotte campuses.  Seminars in Richmond will be offered July 24 – August 2, 2018. In Charlotte, the seminars are offered on Thursdays throughout the year, with four in the fall of 2018 and four in the spring of 2019, and an additional day in the spring for the CEU seminars. Costs for the seminars are $100 per day, OR $335 for four days, OR $670 for all eight. The CEU seminars are $25 each, or $100 for all four. A hearty lunch is included each day.

Mediation Training Seminar Available

Dear Colleagues North Alabama Presbytery and the Presbytery of Sheppards and Lapsley are delighted to sponsor a week-long mediation training seminar facilitated by Lombard Mennonite Peace Center.  This training institute offers invaluable skills and knowledge to navigate conflict in congregations and Presbyteries, and is useful in a variety of other contexts as well. Through a generous grant from our Synod, we are able to offer this workshop for $575 per person for the first 22 participants from the Synod.  This price includes the conference, all materials, and lodging and meals at Camp Maranatha where the training will be held.  This is a * significant * discount of over 50% – the usual registration fee for the conference alone is $750, and with lodging would be $1200.  There is an informational brochure attached.  Please share this with your ministers, congregations, and committees, highlighting the special scholarship rate.  If you have questions, please do not hesitate
