Albany Synod Fellows Program:
Individuals are encouraged to apply for the Fellows program! This is a rigorous two-year program intended for those who are newly ordained or ready for ordination. It is designed to equip adaptive leaders for the present and future of the church. The program allows participants to put their learning into practice, continue learning in a supportive environment, and experiment with a team, most likely representing more than one small, historic congregation. In a region identified as “post-Christian” where many new ministers burnout, this program is a unique opportunity to learn skills that will allow participants to thrive for years to come. Applications are due in May. Apply now!
Please address any additional questions to Abby Norton Levering (nortonlevering@gmail.com) or Sherri Meyer-Veen (PastorSherriMV@gmail.com)
