Residency in Ministry Seminars

Residency in Ministry Seminars are a time to build community and collegiality in small groups of fellow probationary members and program resource people who can assist the process of connecting new clergy into the Conference fellowship. Events include worship, study, singing, prayer, and play. Hiking, solitude and informal sharing are frequently chosen options. The hope of the design team is that probationary members will return to their ministries more deeply connected to God, to themselves, and to their colleagues in ministry.

RIM events are scheduled on the same days each year. The Winter Event is the first Monday and Tuesday in February. The Summer Event is the first Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday in August. The Fall Event is the first Monday and Tuesday in October. Summer is always a Spiritual Renewal event.
