SUMMARY:1Life Foundations: Called to Global Mission – from colonizing to world community
DESCRIPTION:1Life Foundations will be offered on-line to a cohort of participants committed to attending the six workshops and sharing what they’ve learned with their communities. The strength of the on-line format is that it lets us build a province wide learning community with equal access\, while creating appetite for the in-person community best nourished in the local church. Between workshops\, participants are requested to spend time in prayer and reflection with what they have engaged.

SUMMARY:Circle of Grace Training
DESCRIPTION:Circle of Grace is a Christian safe environment curriculum used and promoted in the CRCNA that helps teach the value of positive relationships with God and others. Circle of Grace educates and empowers children and young people to actively participate in a safe environment both for themselves and with others. \nIt is never too early to help children understand how they are created in the image of God and how\nrelationships in life are called to be sacred. Understanding this can help children and youth protect\nthemselves\, while at the same time be respectful of and toward others. \nCircle of Grace helps children and youth know how to: \n\nIdentify and maintain appropriate physical\, emotional\, spiritual\, and sexual boundaries.\nRecognize when boundary violations are about to occur.\nDemonstrate how to take action when boundaries are threatened or violated.\n\nKey Concepts of Circle of Grace: \n\nGod gives each of us a Circle of Grace where God is present.\nGod is present because God desires a relationship with us.\nGod helps us know what belongs in our Circle of Grace & what does not belong in our Circle of Grace.\nGod helps us know when to ask for help from someone we trust.\n\nNote: Circle of Grace is intended to supplement a K-12 church education curriculum for 1-4 weeks per year. Teachers can often draw from the concepts throughout the year embedding them into your child/youth ministry. \n*Safe Church ministry will support each church in establishing Circle of Grace into your current curriculum. \nView the CIRCLE of GRACE Introduction Video \nContact info: \n\nLiz Tolkamp: ltolkamp@crcna.org  604-996-3183\nFaye Martin: Faye@bcsafechurch.com 604-850-5137

SUMMARY:Discerning God's Will Together: is it even possible?
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will introduce council members and other church leadership teams to the practice of intentionally seeking God’s will for their faith community. But what is discernment? How is it different from taking a vote or winning a debate? Participants will be introduced to a clear but rich process of Biblical discernment outlined in Ruth Haley Barton’s book Pursuing God’s Will Together. Participants will also engage Barton’s challenging thesis that a “conversion” of sorts is needed if church leadership teams hope to make decisions with the confidence & joy expressed by the Jerusalem council in Acts 15. “It seems good to the Holy Spirit and to us….” \nFacilitator: Wilma van der Leek\, Curator\, Servant Leadership

SUMMARY:How the World Has Changed Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Let’s discover anew what it means to be God’s people discovering and participating in God’s mission today! \nWe all know the world has changed but understanding the impact that has had on the church and knowing how to respond are harder to figure out. In fact\, exploring that question is an adaptive challenge that reminds us to seek to discern what God is up to in the midst of this “great unravelling.” \nIn this online workshop\, participants will consider these changes\, their implications and how they are\, by the work of the Spirit\, leading the church to a renewed understanding of what it means to be God’s people joining the Spirit on God’s mission in their neighborhoods. \nDesired Outcomes\nParticipants will . . .\n– Be able to identify five changes/adaptive challenges that help describe our ‘new’ world;\n– Reflect on where their church is at in terms of responding to these changes;\n– Begin to identify the ancient-new way of being the church in their context;\n– Explore in an introductory way\, the questions\, postures and practices that might help us to discover anew what it means to be God’s people discovering and participating in God’s mission in our neighborhoods.

DESCRIPTION:Midway through 2021\, an invitation to receive Susan Beaumont’s book “How to Lead When You Don’t Know Where You’re Going: Leading in a Liminal Season” was offered to all pastors in the CRC. Many are responding that this book has been helpful in understanding the season the church is finding itself in. Let’s take the opportunity here in Western Canada to meet with others who received the book and discuss the implications this time is having on our churches and where we see ourselves and our church(es) at this time.  \nFacilitator: Curtis Korver\, Pastor of Alberni Valley CRC \nHost: Jessica Boy\, CRCNA Western Canada Regional Network Developer

How might we be able to collaborate\, share and support each other in the future? Let’s talk!

Both are local to your classis and a tremendous resource! \nFacilitator: Katie Roelofs \nHost: John Zuidhof\, Curator\, Gospel Proclamation & Worship \nOnline Only
