“Not only individual victims, but congregations and communities are betrayed by clergy misconduct.”
—Pamela Cooper-White

These betrayals twist relationships, plant suspicion, and create permanent and crippling wounds.  This brokenness cries out for justice.

Boundary Training is an opportunity to for the church to practice justice by engaging in conversation about:

• the use and misuse of power;
• appropriate boundaries and how they provide of justice, mercy, and loving kindness;
• examining current behaviors;
• how to create healthy communities of transparency and honor.

Join us for this training with the Rev. Judith Spindt, Director of Evangelical Mission for the Southwest Texas Synod.

This one-day seminar is strongly recommended for all leaders in the church, rostered and lay, employed and volunteer. The seminar will address how to establish and maintain personal and professional boundaries, when dealing with coworkers, with parishioners, and with youth.

For those in and around the Metroplex, we request that you attend in person at Briarwood. Those of you outside the Metroplex will be able to participate via live stream; you will have to validate your participation. Pastor Jane Mar will provide more information about that process the day of the event.

Please join us for this important seminar. Most church insurance plans strongly recommend congregation leaders and staff attend this training; even if you have attended a boundary workshop in the past, rostered leaders are expected to attend one at least every three years.

Cost is $12, for lunch. Please email Pastor Jane Mar at jane@ntnl.org to register.
