Presenter: Rev. Danita R. Anderson, NIC Assistant to the Bishop

Join us for a practical and informative webinar designed for SPRC members and anyone in the local church who wants to better understand pastoral transitions.

Rev. Danita R. Anderson will guide participants through the basics of itineracy and the appointment system, how to welcome and support a new pastor, and what to expect when a pastor retires. Whether you’re new to church leadership or simply looking to strengthen your congregation’s hospitality and care, this session offers valuable insights for every church setting.

Provided by the NIC Finance team. If you have any questions, please reach out to David W. Quinn.
