  Wild Church Network Welcome Call

  for seekers and newcomers

  
  

  1 pm PT/2 pm MT/3 pm CT/4 pm ET

  If you've been wanting to learn more about the Wild Church Network, or have felt some kind of tugging on your heart about starting a Wild Church in your community, you are invited to this call!

  Two seasoned Wild Church pastors/leaders will facilitate, provide background about the Network, share their stories of how they got started, what they do at their gatherings, and answer your questions. You'll have the opportunity to share a bit about where you're at in this process, even if it's just your curiosity, and meet some new friends brought together by a common calling - reconnecting a kinship relationship between humans and the rest of the natural world, as spiritual practice and transformation.

  You'll need to RSVP for this call to receive the call-in instructions. These calls occur every month, usually on the 4th Thursday of the month, with the exceptions for holidays. Occasionally they are offered on different days and times to accommodate different schedules. If this call doesn't suit you, check in again for future offerings.

  Looking forward to connecting with you!

  Valerie, Wendy, James, and Eric

  Wild churches are ecumenical and spiritual-but-not-religious and some are connected with existing religious institutions. There are no dogmas to recite, rules to follow, or step-by-step instructions. Rather, wild churches are organic organisms, with a life and intelligence of their own. The online course guides you in listening to what is emerging. It is a process of liberation for your own soul in relationship with the more-than-human-others in your particular Place, woven in with your particular community. 

  ​Who is This For?

  While not required for anyone to start a Wild Church, this course is for existing wild church pastors and leaders as well as those considering starting one in your wildish Place. The course offers training and tools to support you as you consider, plant and guide a growing wild church community.

  ​
  Sessions include:

  Our journey together will guide you through a process of learning and unlearning. We will cover the logistics of starting and maintaining a wild church, listening to stories from diverse leaders within the movement. 

  ​Topics include: the primacy of holding space, listening to the preachers from the land, sharing council-style, dealing with the elements, outreach, building a team, and a bit of theology to ground you in your place.  Offerings include samples of different wild liturgies, orders of service, and invitations to wander will be shared.

  This course will be offered Fall 2022, and every quarter in 2023.
