Discovering the gifts and talents of a community can truly be a blessing for any type of ministry, but bringing all these gifts together to discern and achieve a common goal can also be complicated. Collaboration requires a willingness to take part in a process of discernment and incorporate the elements of spirituality and prayer. Collaboration is also multidimensional, offering different models for getting people to work together within a parish setting. This course will provide an overview of these different models of collaboration as well as methods for working more effectively in community. (6 hours)
