Flourishing: Bold Ideas, Daring Connections

November 10, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

Where:
Crossroads United Church
690 Sir John A. MacDonald Blvd
Kingston ON, K7M 1A2
Tel: 613.542.9305

Summary: Spend a day with the Moderator, engaging in reflection and energizing activities towards dream-oriented actions for our churches and communities.

All around the world – from universities to the United Nations, from corporations to community organizations – people are talking about flourishing. Rooted in belonging, flourishing means living with purpose and joy, and bringing bold collaborative solutions to our world’s challenges.

The Moderator, the Rev. Dr. Carmen Lansdowne, wants to bring that conversation to The United Church of Canada. She invites us to connect to one another in hope, with a deep conviction by a belief that, despite all the challenges of church life in this day and age, we can move from despair to transformation – from languishing to flourishing.

Is your church flourishing?

(Perhaps that’s the wrong question.)

Is your church contributing to the flourishing of your community?

How might we truly be a flourishing church in the world? How might we live in deep spirituality, bold discipleship and daring justice, linked from coast to coast to coast in ministry that transforms us and the world around us?

These workshops are free. Register on CHURCHx – Flourishing Kingston
