January 18-20, 2022

The events of the last few years have challenged many of the prevailing assumptions and practices of our daily lives. In turn, ministry leaders have transitioned, pivoted, and innovated in order to engage the rapid transformations that are taking place among us.

notionally In many ways, the world at the dawn of 2022 will be remarkably different from the world at the beginning of 2020. We know that we are in an epoch of change. Yet, with all that is taking place around us, as missional leaders it is increasingly vital that we have a life and a people that is deeply formed by the way of Jesus. http://c3patriot.com/ed/7JhbpJe7rXY For it is the way of Jesus that the world most needs.

During the 2022 Ecclesia Gathering, we will engage with Pastor Rich Villodas of New Life Fellowship in New York City around transformative values that root us in the way of Christ for the times we live.

In addition, we are taking the opportunity provided by an online gathering to have specific interest gatherings for elders/lead teams, youth and children's ministry leaders, etc. during the evenings as well (coordinated for time zone differences) that will make good content and conversation available to wider numbers of people in your congregation.

Here is what we can look forward to during the

2022 Ecclesia Gathering:

· Plenary sessions where we will engage with Pastor Rich Villodas of New Life Fellowship in New York City around the 5 transformative values that root us in the way of Christ for the times we live.

· Specific interest gatherings for elders/lead teams, youth and children’s ministry leaders, etc. These will take place during the evenings as well (coordinated for time zone differences) that will make good content and conversation available to wider numbers of people in your congregation.

· The opportunity to hear from Ecclesia leaders from across the country who will share their experience in pastoring during this tumultuous season and what they anticipate for mission-shaped ministry in the days ahead.

· “Coffee break” connections for discussions around sharing sermon series ideas, discussing what we’re reading in this season, and other pastorally-oriented conversations and discussions that are typically discussed over dinner or while sitting on the back porch.

· Daily Morning Prayer led by fellow Ecclesia Pastors to help ground us in the life of the Gospel.

· Workshops and Crucial Conversations on pressing issues that church leaders are currently facing.
