Support for Leaders

Local churches can greatly benefit from objective, impartial and sympathetic outside advice, which is informed by knowledge and experience of local church life and needs.  This help can be valuable

• When churches and leaderships have specific difficulties which they feel that they cannot resolve on their own; and
• In more positive circumstances, when churches want an objective view of their strengths, weaknesses and strategic opportunities.

Even the best and biggest churches can find outside help profitable. Seeking it is not a sign of weakness or inability to cope.

• Would you find it helpful to have outside help in thinking through issues with which you are grappling?
• Do you find yourself needing outside pastoral support?
