April Newsletter

Pastor’s Corner

John F. Kennedy said, "Leadership & Learning are indispensable to one another."

During the month of April, we will be focusing on developing leaders in our church. We will take intentional time every Wednesday for all Ministry Heads, Ministers, & Management Staff to learn together, called Leadership Training Institute. We will specifically focus on financial management, planning for the future, sexual harassment prevention, active shooter training, intergenerational church training, and exploring other streams of income for the church.

All persons are invited, but especially those in leadership. At JWC as we "Grow God's People for Ministry", we want to train all of our leaders. Leadership is important to the direction of the church. However as leaders, we must take time to learn. All of us have the capacity to grow in our spiritual journey, piety, and commitment

Leaders never stop learning!
