“Better planning results in better ministry.” PLAN-IT is an interactive, guided planning process to help youth and formation leaders to organize and prioritize their ministry. This is especially important and needed right now, when so many leaders are trying to figure out how to do their ministry in the changing and evolving circumstances of the pandemic.

Plan-It offers time to create a ministry calendar with guidance and help from others. The sessions are led by Lyle Griner, who is the Director of Peer Ministry. Lyle has over 20 years of youth and family ministry experience, coaching and training thousands of leaders. He will share lenses for how to view planning with faith development, spirituality, and leader wellness as key focal points.

Participants will have training via zoom followed by time to work alone and plan, as well as time for check-in, coaching, and meeting with other attendees. Come by yourself or bring your whole ministry team! Here is a flyer you can share with others.
