SUMMARY:Thriving Ministry Leadership: lessons from a duck\, an echidna and a tree (Tasmania - South)
DESCRIPTION:Andrew McDonough\, best known as the author and illustrator of the Lost Sheep books\, is coming to Tasmania! According to Andrew…“Jesus’ best command ever is ‘look at the birds’. It’s where to start if you’re following Jesus. Now\, if you’re in ministry leadership\, we recommend you pay attention to all of God’s creatures. If people drive you bonkers\, if you’re exhausted from helping everyone\, if your last sermon was described as ‘nice’ and if the phrase ‘fruitful ministry’ fills you with determination and despair then join the duck\, an echidna\, a caterpillar\, a tree\, Andrew McDonough and other new ministry friends in a workshop that will be fun and possibly of some value.”  \nFocused on those in ministry leadership\, such as ministers\, deacons\, pastors\, chaplains\, lay preachers\, church council members  and those with specific responsibility for children\, young people and families\, these sessions will be immensely inspiring\, encouraging and practical. Andrew will also highlight his latest book – Jesus was a refugee. Watch out for more information as it comes to hand or e-mail anthea.maynard@victas.uca.org.au. \n  \n\nCost: $10 \nDuration: 3 hours \nBYO Lunch \n\nDownload the event flyer \nRegister online \n
