Join us for one or all four workshops this winter for ministry personnel and clergy looking to deepen their ministry with young people. A perfect use of your 2026 con-ed funds!
All workshops are on Zoom and will be recorded if you can’t make it live.
Supervising Gen Z: Leading, Mentoring, and Empowering Today’s Emerging Adults
This workshop helps clergy understand the unique values, stressors, communication patterns, and post-COVID developmental gaps of Gen Z. Leaders will learn how to supervise young staff, interns, and volunteers with clarity, compassion, and appropriate boundaries while creating empowering environments that reflect Gen Z’s strengths in adaptability, justice-orientation, and creativity.
Jan 20th 1pm – 2:30pm EST
Reimagining All-Ages / Children’s Time in Worship
Children’s time in worship is one of the most visible indicators of a congregation’s culture of welcome – and one of the most misunderstood. This workshop equips clergy to lead all-ages moments that are theologically rich, inclusive, and not infantilizing. Participants will learn how to honour children’s voices, support neurodiverse participation, and integrate all-ages storytelling practices that deepen the worship life of the whole congregation.
Feb 12th 1pm – 2:30pm EST
Nurturing Long-Lasting Spirituality in Children & Youth
Drawing on developmental psychology, spiritual formation research, and our own experience and data, this session explores what helps faith “stick” across a lifetime. Clergy will learn why relational ministry, wonder-based theology, slow spiritual practices, and family engagement matter more than activities or information. You will leave with a framework for helping your congregation cultivate spiritual depth – not just attendance – for children, youth, and the families who support them.
Feb 25th 1pm – 2:30pm EST
Leading Meaningful Intergenerational Worship
This workshop helps clergy design worship that honours the whole body of Christ – across ages, abilities, and backgrounds. Participants will explore practical strategies for integrating children and youth into prayer, proclamation, music, movement, and leadership. You’ll learn how to create a worship environment where all ages feel they fully belong, and where intergenerational presence becomes a theological statement, not a logistical challenge.
April 14th 1pm – 2:30pm EST
