SIX-MINUTE STUDY #247STRONGER TOGETHER STRONGER TOGETHER Partnering, yoking, clustering, merging - whatever the term, collaboration in various forms is a great option for congregations. Our Diocese has several parishes and a couple of regions, who are seriously considering some type of sharing - ministers, programs, training, etc. Not only are we 'stronger together', but the variety of voices and gifts to be shared, along with reductions in costs, means each congregation has more capacity to focus on missional ministry. Read about a real-life case involving Anglican churches in Maryland in Greg Syler's blog, Merging Parishes. https://www.ecfvp.org/blogs/3870/merging-parishes
