Potential Networks
Contact the convener for information or to express interest.
Prison / Jail Ministry
We are looking to put together a network for those interested in Prison/Jail/Detention Center ministry. In particular, we would be looking to share information on how to support inmates and detainees as well their friends and families. This support can come in the form of visitations, helping inmates/detainees connect with loved ones, advocacy, pastoral visitations, as well as worship and other spiritual support. Although this network will not focus on Kairos Ministry, those who are interested in Kairos would be valuable members of this network.
Questions can be addressed to Heather or Aaron Gerlach.
Leadership in parishes without clergy
Greetings! You are invited to join the Province V Network about Leadership in Parishes Without Clergy. This is a group for lay leadership navigating the challenges and opportunities of ministry in lay led congregations. We are reaching out to wardens and congregational leaders who are interested in connecting with others in similar circumstances to share ideas and resources.
Please let Heather know you would be interested in this network.
Recovery Ministries
Province V ECW is partnering with the Province V Executive Board to create a Recovery Ministries Network. This is a group of people affected by addiction - those who are addicted, their families, health care providers, churches who provide safe places for recovery groups, and anyone interested in learning more.
If you're interested in being part of this network, contact Kathy Mank, President of Province V ECW.
Suicide Prevention
Province V ECW is partnering with the Province V Executive Board to create a Suicide Prevention Network. This network is primarily for parishes who are actively working on suicide prevention or those who would like to start local ministries raising awareness and helping to prevent suicide in their communities.
If you're interested in being part of this network, contact Kathy Mank, President of Province V ECW.
Refugee Ministry
Are you engaged or interested in ministry with asylum seekers and refugees? If so, we would like to connect you with others in Province V. This network is likely to have three foci: education, advocacy, and asylum seeker/refugee support. It is also likely this network will develop a relationship with Episcopal Migration Ministries.
