Greetings!

CREDO 2011 Annual Report available online    

CREDO 2011 Annual Report All of us have experienced the tremendous power of water: the sheer force of breaking waves; the much-anticipated refreshment of a plunge in the pool on a July day.

 

A "Living Stream with a Sustainable Spirit," that is how we describe the powerful, fluid, and yet constant character of CREDO--ever-changing, never still, yet true to a course of supporting holistic health and wellness for eligible Church Pension Plan participants.

 

The 2011 CREDO Annual Report highlights the varied ways CREDO's Living Stream continues to flow into new areas of ministry while at the same time providing the foundational CREDO experience for 654 participants last year alone. Some of the major initiatives and accomplishments during 2011 include: 27 conferences; a long-term trend of positive end-of-conference evaluations; a reoriented faculty for new conference offerings; and a strong battery of new post-conference resources. The year also marked the wrap up of CREDO's participation in the Strength for the Journey initiative, which supported the reorganizing dioceses of Fort Worth, Pittsburgh, Quincy, and San Joaquin.

Last Call to all
CREDO participants at General Convention
Share your CREDO story  

    

In a few days, our communication team will join many of you in Indianapolis for the 77th General Convention of the Episcopal Church. Our mission: To capture your CREDO story in video.

 

We still have a few interview spots open on Thursday, July 5, Friday, July 6, and Saturday, July 7. Interviews will take place in Room 138 of the Indiana Convention Center--close to both the House of Deputies and House of Bishops meeting halls.

 

CREDO Interviews

   

If you haven't scheduled an interview, email us today. We'll arrange a convenient time for you to share your CREDO conference experience and your successes and challenges in continuing your CREDO experience day-to-day.

 

Interviews will be SHORT, but time well-spent.

 

We can capture a lot in just a few minutes. Plus, you will be adding valuable material to the CREDO post-conference resources and helping  provide new perspectives and valuable affirmation for supporting the health and well-being of Episcopal Church clergy and all people who work for the Church.

NEW: CREDO Conferences for
Recently Ordained Clergy  

 

ROC

Invitations are in the mail for a new CREDO conference series specifically designed to support clergy of all ages who are still within the first four years of their ordained ministry.  Since most of the readers of CREDO Connection have already attended a CREDO I Conference, we encourage you to share your experience with the recently ordained clergy you know who qualify for this unique CREDO experience.

A new video on the CREDO website introduces the ROC Conference series and highlights what's new about its structure and design. This is a special opportunity for newly ordained clergy that they won't want to miss.
