Faith Formation Focus Groups Fall 2022

We are aware of many shifts that are directly connected to the Covid-19 pandemic and other changes in the practice of faith formation over the last decade. As we vision forward, with a commitment to faith formation in our congregations and resourcing those ministries, we want to hear from you about the particular needs you have and the ways you would feel supported by our work with you.

Focus Groups will be held for

  • Small congregations (75 or less in worship)
  • Children and family faith formation leaders
  • Certified Christian Educators
  • Adult Faith Formation (Sunday school, studies, etc.)
  • Youth leaders (youth groups, camp, etc.)
  • Pastors

Rev. Christy Clore will begin her work with us on September 12, 2022. She will be meeting with each focus group to listen and collect information that will help the CCD understand the needs of our congregations and the best way forward to enhance and build faith formation practices across the province.

Use the online form below or call our office (336-722-8126) by August 31, 2022 to sign up. Let us know which focus group you would like to participate in so that we can contact you with potential dates and times as we set the schedule.

We appreciate all that you do to honor your baptismal covenant and to follow the Great Commission, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.’ Matthew 28: 19-20.
