We are all working under the pressures of “too much.”

That includes those of us in the Church who are trying to choose and modify programs from among a overwhelming variety of choices, and the families we’re trying to entice through our doors, who are faced with nonstop activities – sports, dance, travel, homework. It’s enough to make anyone throw up their hands in frustration. So what’s the solution?

The reality that underlies our current challenges seems to be that there is no “one-size-fits-all” answer to the offering meaningful formation, but there are a lot of resources that can be helpful. That’s where A Bird In Church Consulting enters.

A Bird In Church can help you navigate your community’s needs, assess the available options, and prepare those resources so that your program can run smoothly. Services include:

• Remote Program Administration: registration management and record keeping, newsletter content development, and Zoom-based teacher trainings

• Material preparation: most programs offer much more than can be done during the time available for “Sunday School,” and volunteers don’t always have the bandwidth to pare back those materials. Let me get it prepped so Sunday mornings can run smoothly

• Special Programming Development: whether you’re looking for something big, like the framework for developing a new ministry, or theologically grounded activities for a single event, you might benefit from custom programming that takes your unique context into account.
