The Fresh Expressions Academy launches in November and lasts for 12 months.
The Fresh Expressions Academy will equip clergy and laity to experiment and take risks in order to engage people who are not yet part of a faith community.
The Academy will combine presentations, regular coaching, peer-to-peer discussions, immersion experiences, and an online group to help facilitate the cultivation of Fresh Expressions. It is designed to equip clergy and laity to innovate and take risks to engage people who are not yet part of a faith community.
Important Dates Include:
Gather: The opening training day provides an overview for Fresh Expressions and the blended ecology: November 2, 2024
Grow: The cohort of innovators will gather for a deep dive into practical guidance and shared learnings as they are actively engaged in cultivating fresh expressions and other innovative forms of ministry: February 2025
Go: The closing gathering will be a day of “reverse mentorship” in which students will do a presentation on their new expression and share key learnings: November 1, 2025
