Navigating the Great Recession - Financial Leadership in Your Congregation & Community

Now more than ever, communities of faith have an opportunity to heed the call of leadership and in turn offer hope and guidance. Help your congregation and community better understand the core issues related to the economic crisis and in turn develop a strategy and an action plan for how you can help people navigate these uncharted waters.

• Gain insight on our current economic times and what it means to your community.
• Share ideas on how to lead your congregation through this crisis.
• Find opportunities to interact and share strategies with your peers.

Join the Rev. Laurel Johnston on Saturday, April 25th from 8:30 a.m. - 4 p.m. at Luther Seminary in St. Paul, MN to explore this important topic.
