Calling Congregations

Read our Congregations Blog and other print resources.

Watch a video about the benefits to congregations in nurturing young leaders.

Listen to stories and speakers from past conferences and events, and learn about congregations that are taking part in the cause!

The first step in our journey is to simply read, watch, and listen to the stories of those who are committed to congregational practices that notice, name and nurture future leaders for the church.

Call others to action in support of future leaders for the church

Church communities that care for vocation practice nurturing leaders who pursue Christian vocations, especially the call to ordained ministry, as faithful ways for living a meaningful life. We believe that you and your institution are positioned to shape and form future church leaders. So let's share in this work together of leading generations to hear, respond and serve God's call in their lives and to change the world.
