Ministry Renewal Retreats Victoria – Facilitators Training

Another full day of training for facilitators for Ministry Renewal Retreats at St James Old Cathedral in Melbourne. Our normal cycles of renewal retreats run over three years and then groups either multiply or reform. Victorian Retreats are non-denominational. Contact us to find out more.

We began with a Biblical reflection on Mark 1:16-20 led by one of the participants. We then looked at cultivating supportive relationships, revisited some of the core processes and facilitation skills, and reviewed the Renewal Retreat Facilitator Covenant.

The new resources have been uploaded to our shared Dropbox.

Ministry Renewal Retreats Victoria – Facilitators Training

Back to St James Old Cathedral in West Melbourne. This time with the facilitators of Ministry Renewal Retreats Victoria.

We began the day with a reflection on the Road to Emmaus led by one of the participants. A main session for the morning considered spiritual formation practices for pastors and leaders. We then explored the echoes of spiritual direction, mentoring, coaching, counselling / therapy, and supervision in retreat processes. We assessed ourselves against the Renewal Retreat Facilitation Competencies and reflected on co-facilitation as we concluded the day.

Welcome

Welcome to ‘the johnmark extension’, my current primary website. If you have attended a seminar or training day that I have facilitated, the notes and resources should be linked below in my ministry blog.

The ‘johnmark extension’ provides leadership training in a wide range of areas oriented toward the professional learning of pastors and the leaders of Christian and not for profit organisations. See the areas in which I am currently teaching and training
Leadership Development Workshops.

Many of these resources have also been shared on
The Christian Leadership Exchange

Developed out of our mentoring training, the MEQ course, which is offered in a range of formats from ACT accredited through to workshop based short courses, there is a resources site for leaders who mentor others. Check out resources on The Mentor Exchange

Over recent years teaching skills in Conflict Management has become an area in its own right for me. Find conflict resources and training in peacemaking here:
