Have you noticed this?

All across Canada, pastors are retiring at a faster rate than they’re being replaced, and leaders in our churches are looking for help.

REPORTS SUMMARY

• 25%-40% of pastors will leave the ministry in 5 years.

• Over 50% of pastors will not be in the ministry in the next 10-15 years.

Project: LEAD

Building A Legacy of Leadership

Project: Lead is our plan to address this for the EFCC.

  • We need to make education and training accessible to our people.
  • We need to affirm the desire of younger generations to serve in church minitry.
  • We need to redouble our efforts to support and encourage current and future leaders.
By providing generous bursaries for ministry students attending one of our partner schools, and equipping leaders in our churches through EFC Leadership training, we are seeking to meet the needs of our local EFCC churches.

Your donation will help us provide bursaries to lighten the financial burden of training new leaders within the EFCC movement.

Thank you!

Your donation to this project will enable us to grow the Albert J. Bergsma Fund to make training and education more accessible to more people in the EFCC. In turn, this will prepare them for a future of serving our churches in Canada and around the world.
