You are invited to attend an upcoming continuing education opportunity for church leaders that Lombard Mennonite Peace Center will be holding in the Chicago area this August, focusing on conflict transformation and mediation skills.

Mediation Skills Training Institute for Church Leaders
Monday-Friday, August 7-11, 2017

 St. Mark’s Episcopal Church
393 N. Main Street
Glen Ellyn, IL

This five-day training is intended to equip church leaders with the skills necessary to deal effectively with interpersonal conflict, congregational conflict, and other forms of group conflict.  It includes lectures, discussion, and guided practice in role play, and is designed to be active and practical in focus.  The sessions emphasize hands-on skills training and role-plays based on the types of conflict faced by participants. This training is useful for pastors, lay leaders, and others who serve with church-related ministries.

This email includes a brochure for the event, which contains information and a registration form.  People can also visit the LMPC website at www.LMPeaceCenter.org <http://www.lmpeacecenter.org/>  to download the brochure or register online.
