Tool Kit for Congregational Leaders is an annual gathering for congregational leaders. After a day of workshops and networking, leaders go back to their congregations equipped with new resources, ideas, connections, and friends!
2019 Tool Kit for Congregational Leaders
In 2019, the Saint Paul Area Synod Conference Assemblies and Tool Kit for Congregational Leaders were combined into one event. Rostered and lay leaders gathered on Saturday, February 23 at Augustana Lutheran Church in West St. Paul for a day of business and learning together. Photos from the day are available here.
Resources
In 2019, there were 14 workshops as part of the Tool Kit for Congregational Leaders. Some of those workshops have made available the resources or presentations shared.
