One Day Retreat

The Daring Way for Church Leaders
May 8th - Our Savior's Lutheran in Great Falls/ 9am to 5pm
Led by Rev. Sarah Ciavarri, ELCA Pastor

Would you like to strengthen your leadership and increase your capacity to be courageous in uncertainty?  Are you wanting to be more resilient personally and model that in your congregation?  This retreat will position us at this rich intersection of social science research and Scripture, faith, and theology.  Based on the groundbreaking work of Dr. Brené Brown, this workshop will empower you to more effectively handle stressful situations in ministry, provide tools to clarify your core values, the role of vulnerability in ministry and create greater resiliency for handling the ups and downs of life and ministry.  This workshop is a combination of short lectures, self-exploration, sharing and skill building exercises.  We will learn with and from each other, create sacred ground where our stories are honored and where you can explore how faith, Scripture, and ministry connect for you and practice new skills to empower you to lead with increased joy, authenticity, and purpose. 

Our retreat is based on the Daring Way™ developed by Dr. Brené Brown.  The primary focus is in developing shame resilience skills and developing a courage practice that transforms the way we live, love, parent, and lead.  Dr. Brené Brown is a research professor at the University of Houston and a bestselling author.  Her Ted Talk on vulnerability is the 2nd most popular talk.
