Note from Margie McCarty:
The Lilly Foundation has renewed funding for the Together in Ministry Project. There are presently 3 avenues for collegial covenant groups to seek funding in 2008:
1. CONTINUED FUNDING FOR EXISTING GROUPS
2. FUNDING FOR NEW COLLEGIAL COVENANT GROUPS
-
New groups may be funded at $2000.00 per year for facilitators for the next 5 years. (2008-2012) At least one member of the group must be a member of the constituent Ministers Council. Membership is not limited to American Baptists.
-
20 new groups will be funded nationally
-
Ministers Council members who participate in a new group will each receive an additional $100 yearly for expenses.
3. FUNDING FOR NEW COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE—PASTORAL AND LAY LEADERS TOGETHER
-
For the first time, these groups will include both pastoral and lay leadership
-
Extensive details about the formation of such groups can be found on national Ministers Council website.
