Catholic Vision for Leading Like Jesus Encounters will be offered this month at the Prairiewoods Spirituality Center in Hiawatha, IA, just north of Cedar Rapids, where participants have three choices of dates and times:
- Tuesdays, Feb. 21 and 28, 6-9 p.m.
- Thursday, Feb. 23, 8:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m.
- Saturday, Feb. 25, 8:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m.
The Yeshua Institute will also offer an ecumenical version of the Encounter in the Winnebago County Jail in Rockford, IL, on Feb. 13-16, but that event is open only to prisoners in the jail.
“Modern empirical studies continue to affirm the value of Jesus’ leadership approach in every setting – at home, at work, in our parishes and in the network of other communities of which we are all a part,” says Dan Rohner, Facilitator for the programs in Iowa, which are open to anyone.
“Often our leadership efforts are not effective – we are ignored, undermined, even ridiculed and reviled,” says Rohner. “Jesus showed us a better way -- because Jesus was the best leadership teacher and role model of all time.”
By becoming familiar with Jesus’ leadership teaching and example during an Encounter, “you can be a better leader -- helping to bring about better outcomes -- as spouse, parent, grandparent, friend, team member, team leader, worker, supervisor, manager, sales executive, CEO, scout leader, youth coach, club member or officer, as pastor and parishioner,” Rohner said.
The registration fee is just $49 by credit card or check. Register at www.DBQArch.org/Events. For more information, contact Rohner at D.Rohner@dbqarch.org or 800-876-3546 x 283.
