Center for Congregational Health


	Since 1992, we have assisted congregations in becoming healthier communities of faith. Today we offer the following services: Consultation — helps congregations face challenges and opportunities ranging from strategic planning to team development to conflict management. Our consultants help you do what you know you should do, but are not sure how to do it. Leadership Development for Clergy — offers in-depth education opportunities that assist clergy in developing models for their ministry, assessing their strengths and limitations as a leader and establishing the support needed to sustain ministry. Our programs extend over time and are based on proven models. Interim Ministry — offers the opportunity for a congregation to transform the transition between pastors into a time of growth for the church. We assist congregations in deciding on the best way to use the interim time. We train clergy as interim pastors and intentional interim ministry specialists and provide resources to interim ministers throughout the United States and in Australia. Faith and Vocation — is the newest area of our work. In cooperation with the Wake Forest University Divinity School, we are developing resources that assist individuals in connecting their faith and their work. We are encouraging congregations in their role of nurturing the vocation of their members.
