Leadership Academy 2026

On April 25, you are invited to join us at Good Samaritan Episcopal Church in San Diego for Leadership Academy, a day dedicated to learning for both clergy and lay leaders within our diocese. This time spent learning in community facilitates congregational growth and connection within our diocesan community. New and experienced leaders come together to explore new ideas and develop skills that will impact their ministries in the year ahead. One of the most remarkable blessings of our diocese is the depth of wisdom and talent within its leaders. Leadership Academy celebrates and builds upon that shared strength, highlighting voices from different congregations and communities in our diocesan life. 

The day begins with Morning Prayer in the sanctuary. With a message shared by Canon Jason Evans, shared prayers and hymns, we will ground ourselves in worship to prepare for a day of learning. Throughout the day, there will be opportunities to connect with friends and colleagues from across the diocese, deepening the relationships that support our shared ministry. The day closes with a time of reflection, centering God in all that we do and marking our commitment to serve with Courageous Love. 

Leadership Academy offers the chance to choose, à la carte, from three tracks, each designed to inspire and equip participants for leadership in diverse contexts.
