Beginning Ministry in a New Setting - COVID-19 Supplement

Pastoral transitions this year will be like no others before. To help pastors during this challenging time, the Lewis Center surveyed a trusted group of pastoral leaders and judicatory leaders for their ideas and thoughts about making a successful transition during the coming months. Their recommendations are summarized in the free The Right Start: COVID-19 Supplement. This guide covers the unique implications for pastoral transition in the areas of Leaving Well; Parsonages, Offices, and Moving; Entering a New Congregation and Getting Acquainted; Preaching and Worship in the First Months; and Congregational and Community Financial Stress.
