SUMMARY:SeaTac Clergy Day Apart: A Day of Play
DESCRIPTION:Clergy of the SeaTac District are invited to a day away from your usual ministry setting in the form of a a play date with colleagues! Several of your peers have planned a day of renewal that differs from clergy gatherings you may be used to: \n\nThere will not be any formally offered education\, formation\, or learning\, only a brief grounding prayer and space. After that\, you are welcome to invite conversations on topics of your choosing\, and you are also welcome to put in earphones and be an introvert if that is what play looks like for you.\nWe will not be meeting in a church. This is to help us all fully participate and receive in a less work-related environment\, where we will likely avoid going into a professional autopilot. It’s a space for open-mindedness and relaxation.\nThis play is designed to be opt-in/opt-out friendly. Following your renewal needs\, you can participate or not.\n\nYour $10 registration will include communal lunch in a food court with a variety of options and a free-style painting project. Click here to register.

SUMMARY:Creating a Safety and Security Ministry
DESCRIPTION:About the workshop:\nThe SeaTac Missional District of The Pacific Northwest Conference of the United Methodist Church is sponsoring a workshop\, Creating a Safety and Security Ministry\, on Saturday\, February 10\, 2024\, from 10 am to 3 pm. The workshop will be held in the Lee Activity Center at Blaine Memorial United Methodist Church. \nThe pandemic years showed us that something can disrupt even the hallowed routine of attending church on Sunday. Recent changes in our world have challenged our sense of safety and security\, creating a continued feeling of unease. Rev. Derek Nakano\, District Superintendent for the SeaTac Missional District\, tasked his member churches to address church safety and security during their charge conferences. \nJoin workshop facilitator Ronald Miller\, MA\, MS\, and his wife Joanne\, MSN\, RN\, ARNP\, who will discuss the steps to create a Safety and Security Ministry for your church. Helping others create safe and secure ministries is a passion and personal ministry for the Millers. \nWhy attend?\nMany churches find planning for safety and security challenging. Bluntly\, “It could never happen here” is irresponsible and naïve. The “normal” has changed. Frequently\, through prayerful discernment\, we need a change in basic assumptions. But where do you start? \n\nThe scriptural basis for protection.\nA brief review of the history and trends of violence on faith-based properties.\nProactive v Reactive—The Mindset.\nInitial steps to creating a ministry for safety and protection.\nThreat vulnerability and mitigation of identified factors.\nBuilding the Ministry team\, Equipment\, and Training Resources.\nOn-going networking and training.\nPotential legal liabilities for failing to plan and prepare (not legal advice).\nFederal funding programs for Faith-Based Organizations.\n\n\nWho should attend?\nAnyone who feels called may serve in this ministry. If you have the heart\, there is a role for you. We are first and foremost Ambassadors for Christ who “watch over the flock” for the Shepherd. That is the mission. Clergy are urged to attend with their congregants. \nThe workshop costs $50 per person or $100 for up to 4 same congregation members. For questions\, please email Erin at etombaugh@pnwumc.org. We will provide lunch and refreshments. \nRegister and pay online here. \nAbout the presenters:\nRonald Miller\, MA\, MS\, sits on the Episcopal Diocese of Olympia’s Board of Directors and serves as the Safety and Security Coordinator for the Diocese. He is a retired police officer\, trained as a forensic scientist\, a retired Licensed Mental Health Counselor\, and a court-appointed Forensic Investigator specializing in behavioral evidence analysis in homicide investigations. He is a certified firearms instructor. \nJoanne Miller\, ARNP\, is a retired advanced practice registered nurse specializing in trauma\, ICU\, and palliative care. She is also a certified firearms instructor who focuses on women’s issues and needs in handgun training. Together\, she and Ron provide private firearms safety and training instruction.
