A Welcoming Table

A WELCOMING TABLE:

A Ministry WITH the poor experiential training event

Haywood Street Congregation, Asheville NC

August 29 - 31, 2018

At the altar table and around the dinner table, in the meeting room and beside the picnic table, this highly diverse congregation is thriving in part because of its emphasis on authentic relationship and mutual service. This workshop offers an opportunity to explore Haywood Street’s organizational structure and examine best practices for sustainable and transformational ministry WITH the poor. A focus of the workshop is supporting congregations in developing or strengthening ministry with the poor in their local communities.

There are multiple tracks for registering for this three-day training event:

Track A is a comprehensive training that includes experiential components and covers topics ranging from theological foundations and guiding principles for relationship-based ministry with the poor to volunteer management, fundraising, and developing strategic partnerships. Begins Wednesday at 10 a.m. and concludes Friday at 12:30 p.m. ($200)

Track B is advanced training for organizations that are already engaged in cutting edge ministries with and among the poor, or those that have attended previous WITH* trainings and are trying out new ways of being in ministry within their local communities. Dialogue and learning around common challenges and opportunities such as maintaining staff wellness, positive approaches to campus safety, and navigating relationship in the context of addiction and mental illness. Begins Thursday at 8:30 a.m. and concludes Friday at 12:30 p.m. ($115)
