Monthly Small Group Meetings for Facilitators: January - May 2019
|
Our monthly, two-hour on-line small groups for facilitators are a unique and intensive facilitator training experience. For five months, facilitators meet once-a-month with our team lead and founder of Soul Matters, Rev. Scott Tayler. Each monthly meeting is run as a small group and follows the packet for the upcoming month. Facilitators get a “dry run” of the session they will be leading the following month. Along the way, Rev. Tayler pauses to point out tips and group process. In addition to learning technique, facilitators are nourished by the personal sharing of fellow facilitators from around the country.
After each 2 hour session, facilitators can stay on the call for an optional and more personalized troubleshooting and tips session with Rev. Tayler. This is a chance for facilitators to receive monthly support for the particular challenges they are wrestling with in their groups back in their home congregations. COST: $100 for a half year (5 meetings) TIME PERIOD: We run these 5-month sessions twice a year, September-January & January-May. The next series is January 2019 - May 2019. MEETING TIME: We are offering two groups, one timed to be convenient for eastern and central time participants and another timed to be convenient for mountain and pacific time participants:
