Upcoming Learning Opportunities

Ecosystem Mapping Retreat:

Our next programming season will begin with a retreat at Camp Friendship on Oct. 9-11 that will work with congregations to:

• Map their neighborhood ecosystem. 
• Discern their next right work as trustworthy neighbors. 
• Distill next steps.

What is happening at the fall retreat?

At our fall retreat we will map the ecosystem of our neighborhoods, locate ourselves, our churches, and our next right work by understanding how our congregations fit into our neighborhood ecosystem and where God is calling us. At the end of the retreat, congregations will discern next steps, including joining the community partner cohort.

Congregations interested in the retreat should recruit 3 people to attend. Room for additional team members may be available depending on interest and availability of spots at the camp. Some congregational teams may also consider inviting a community partner to be a part of their team at the retreat (more below on cohort options.)

Community Partner Cohort

The Community Partner Cohort will begin in January 2027. Learn more on the Community Partner Cohort Page

Emerging Opportunities

Additionally, we have a few shorter opportunities in the works and will have more details in Fall 2026. Emerging opportunities may include community organizing and mutual aid skill building and exploring how to use your building and church property to love your neighbors.
