Propagating God’s work is a calling that inspires and blesses those entrusted with the sacred mission of advancing Christ’s ministry. For some, this involves the profound responsibility of ordination, shepherding communities in faith and leading them closer to God. Others fulfill this mission through lay paths, spreading the gospel in their everyday lives and vocations. Each calling is vital, contributing to the collective effort of extending God’s love and truth to the world.
As your career develops and levels of seniority are reached, many realize that demands increasing entail issues of administration, management, and leadership. Running a ministry at a more senior level often involves managing money and finances, human resources, legal issues, and many other skills needed to support the ministry and help it grow.
These business skills are not second nature to most. And while they are necessary for ministry to flourish, many have not received the educational foundation needed to succeed.
We offer the tools needed to support those responsible for serving the primary activity of the Church, especially in these times marked by increasingly scarce resources and ever-changing rules and structures. Whether you are a diocesan employee, a non-profit leader, or a clergy member, our aim is to enhance your ability to handle the business side of your mission successfully.
