Borderless Grace
2018-11-16 19:00 - 2018-11-18 12:00
Border Ministries Summit sponsored by the Episcopal Diocese of the Rio Grande
The summit will include:

a keynote address by the Rt. Rev. Katharine Jefferts Schori
speakers from the Episcopal Church and secular agencies that work along the border
opportunities for border immersion experiences

The 2,000 miles of border between the US and Mexico is an area of heightened social, political and spiritual importance. Along the border, cultures, economies and families meet and are divided. The border offers the Church an unique opportunity for ministry, and dioceses along the border have each responded. This summit will provide opportunities to share information about border ministries and to build partnerships for future ministries and increase awareness of border issues.
The six dioceses who share the border will share their experiences of ministry. Other interested parties are invited to participate as space allows.

Clergy Conference 2018
2018-09-17 12:00 - 2018-09-19 12:00 | Mission San Luis Rey, 4050 Mission Ave, Oceanside, CA, 92057, United States
Join us at the Mission San Luis Rey for the 2018 Clergy Conference! This year’s theme is “Compassionate Communication in These Times.”
Keynote speaker Allan Rohlfs will share his knowledge with us on Monday evening and Tuesday morning. Allan is a psychotherapist with over 35 years of experience and is a certified NonViolent Communication trainer. NonViolent Communication (NVC) is a model for transforming any relationship or conversation, including the most difficult, into harmonious and caring conversations.
“Most of us when confronted with another’s offensive behavior are limited in methods to influence the other to change,” Rohlfs notes. “After asking politely we don’t know what to do, except to get angry, be sarcastic, threaten, call them names, coerce them in some way, or put up with it. This approach offers an alternative. It teaches you how to convey your negative reaction to someone or to hear their negative reaction to you in a way that transforms the communication from blame and punishment to openness and understanding. Frequently it works like magic—even though it is difficult to do and usually requires much practice! Referred to as the language of the heart, NVC teaches how to disclose elements of reaction, which at first are not apparent even to ourselves, elements which are inherently both honest and at the same time non-accusatory. So from the outset the climate is non-threatening. And the response elicited is one of understanding rather than one of defensiveness.”

Update: Compassionate Flexibility in These Times
