SUMMARY:Boundaries with Older Adults
DESCRIPTION:Boundaries with Older Adults \nwith Rev. Beth Long-Higgins \nTuesday\, May 12\, 2026 – 5:30-8:30 p.m. OR Wednesday\, May 13\, 2026 – 9 a.m. to Noon \n(NOTE: This is a one part training being offered twice.) \n3 hours of Advanced Boundary Training for Authorized Ministers \nParticipants will engage in discussion around a general framework for boundaries in ministry with older adults in congregations\, community\, and ministry settings. Included specifically will be the clergy relationship with older adults recognizing and preventing financial exploitation and scams. \nUsing Financial Exploitation and Elder Abuse as the case Study \nAbuse and financial exploitation of older adults are complex and often hidden realities within congregational life. Most harm occurs in the context of trusted relationships\, which means clergy may find themselves alongside those who are harmed\, those who cause harm\, and those who feel unsure how to respond. Older adults themselves may struggle to recognize or disclose abuse\, particularly when health\, cognition\, family ties\, or dependence are involved. In this interactive training\, clergy will explore how financial abuse and exploitation—both online and in person—shows up in pastoral contexts and how appropriate boundaries\, theological grounding\, and congregational support can shape faithful and compassionate responses. \nThis training is online only\, via Zoom. \nLearn more and register here.

SUMMARY:Men's Keystone Clergy Retreat - "Men and Forgiveness"
DESCRIPTION:The gospel of Jesus Christ lays claim to our lives like nothing else. Throughout his ministry\, Jesus recognizes people\, honors people\, unburdens people\, and frees God’s children from every form of bondage\, confronting injustice with love and death with life.  Jesus re-members our life stories in ways that redefine each person’s sense of identity and purpose.  He identifies and calls forth new strengths and capacities from within us. The forgiveness of God in Jesus Christ invites us to share his life deeply and be infused with a power much greater than all the might and blustering control proclaimed in these times of ours.  We learn his way by heart and are blessed to carry it into the world. Join us on this retreat\, where we will crack open remarkable gospel narratives\, meeting them with the authenticity of our own stories and the fullness of ourselves! \n10 hours of CE credit will be awarded for full participation. \nLearn more and register here.
