Clergy Leadership Ministries
OUR LEADERSHIP MINISTRIES MISSION:
In collaboration with our appropriate partners, determine and evaluate the need for leadership development, assessing critical missional issues through research, experiments, and strategic conversations among leaders.
The Clergy Growth and Renewal Fund has been established by The Methodist Foundation for Arkansas to provide financial support for clergy in the Arkansas Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church to experience events that promote personal or spiritual growth and perfecting professional skills. These funds are available to Elders, Deacons, and Local Pastors under appointment.
The Methodist Foundation for Arkansas is honored to partner with the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation in the creation of The Micah Fellows Program, a 9-month learning community for faith and community leaders in Arkansas designed to catalyze economic justice and anti-poverty efforts in our communities.
