We believe that pioneering is integral to parish life. The Pioneering Parishes webinar courses help church leaders, both clergy and lay people, to discover pioneering in a new way and then enable steady culture change to shift energy out from the church into the parish. Our community of learning is the place to learn, grow, share insights and be encouraged.
