Congregational Vitality All-Calls on second Thursdays – Nov. 12

November 12 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EST

Second Thursdays, 12-1 p.m. ET 
Join colleagues from across The Episcopal Church for monthly conversations about church planting, revitalization, and redevelopment. Each call will include updates from the congregational vitality team, opportunities to build connections, and focused breakout conversations with others engaged in similar ministries. Participants can share experiences, exchange ideas, explore common challenges, and learn from one another’s work in different contexts.

Participants will be asked to select a breakout room during the call based on their area of interest. Selections are as follows:

  • Traditional Church Planters – Clergy and primary lay leaders involved in planting a traditional Episcopal church community with regular patterns of prayer, sacramental life, and community formation.
  • Missional Community Planters – Clergy and primary lay leaders involved in planting new Episcopal communities that may not follow a traditional parish model of church. Rather than being geographically defined or centered on a single weekly worship gathering, they organize around relationships, shared identity, and context.
  • Revitalization and Redevelopment Leaders – Clergy, lay leaders, and diocesan staff engaged in renewing the vitality and mission of existing Episcopal congregations or reimagining how church buildings, property, and other assets can support mission and ministry.

Sign up to receive invitations and registration links for upcoming gatherings. Each all-call has a unique registration link, so joining the mailing list will keep you informed but does not register you for an individual gathering. 

Mark your calendar for these all-call dates and topics of conversation:
• Dec. 10 – Following Up with Visitors
• Jan. 14 – Calendar Planning for Mission
• Feb. 11 – TBD
