Next Brethren webinar is on ‘Befriending a New Vision.’

"Befriending a New Vision" is the next in the Church of the Brethren’s webinar series. The online event is Sept. 27 from 3:30-5 p.m. eastern time (12:30-2 p.m. Pacific).

The webinar will feature "candid discussion about leading an established church through the process of renewing itself without dishonoring the past or the people who still find meaning in it," according to an announcement. Presenter is Roger Shenk, pastor of Bahia Vista Mennonite Church in Sarasota, Fla., a 60-year-old church that in 2009 began to take bold yet thoughtful steps in revitalizing its approach to ministry.

Ministers may receive 0.1 continuing education units for the live session, offered by the Brethren Academy for Ministerial Leadership. Connect at www.brethren.org/webcasts. For more information go to www.brethren.org/webcasts/befriending-a-new-vision.html or contact Stan Dueck, director of Transforming Practices, 717-335-3226 or sdueck@brethren.org.
