Jean-Fritz Guerrier We invite clergy, lay leaders, scholars, and nonprofit practitioners into a rigorous yet highly practical exploration of how religious organizations can move from worthy aspirations to measurable, sustainable impact. At a moment marked by declining participation, demographic shifts, financial strain, volunteer fatigue, and rapidly changing community expectations, strategic planning is no longer an administrative luxury. It is an essential act of stewardship. Drawing on real-world congregational experience, organizational research, and proven planning disciplines, this interactive webinar will help participants distinguish strategic leadership from routine operations; assess institutional strengths, assets, stakeholders, and emerging needs; translate mission into priorities; and connect resources, inputs, outputs, outcomes, and indicators in a way that strengthens accountability without diminishing spiritual purpose. Through compelling examples, original planning concepts, thoughtful humor, and collaborative small-group exercises, participants will leave with concrete tools they can immediately adapt to congregations and faith-based organizations of different sizes, traditions, and governing structures, and with a clearer understanding of how institutions can honor their history without becoming captive to it. false

Deshna Charron Zoom | November 11 | 12 – 1:30 pm Eastern Around the world, communities are facing major social and systemic change. Signs of societal and environmental collapse are evident. Our attempts to live “independently,” create the experience of separation that leads to suffering, division and destruction, all of which runs counter to the sacred teachings present in all the World Religions, Earth-centered expressions and the teachings of Jesus. Nourishing children spiritually and equipping them with the skills they need to not just survive but thrive within this chaotic and stressful environment can ground, prepare, and inspire the next generation. We do this by providing spiritual practices, self-awareness exercises, and organizing tools so that youth and their communities may rise up resiliently, modeling a healthy, and whole way forward for all.
