Read and Share


August 2013
Greetings!

CREDO is now an official program of the Church Pension Group (CPG) and is working even more closely with Pension Services and Medical Trust. CREDO is part of the new Education and Wellness Group of CPG, under which educational programs will be unified and coordinated.

The new Education and Wellness Group is sponsoring a "must hear" Advent and Christmas seasonal reflection series that begins on Sunday, December 1. 

 



CPG Education and Wellness plans Audio and Video Series for Advent

Advent 2013

The Church Pension Group (CPG) Education and Wellness division will feature an Advent and Christmas season reflection series with Barbara Cawthorne Crafton. The series will focus on Barbara's republished mediations Let Every Heart Prepare.

Barbara's book, which is published by Church Publishing Incorporated, an affiliate company of the Church Pension Fund, anchors each short daily reflection with an appropriate hymn, providing a lyrical resonance to her seasonal reflections.

With daily audio reflections for home paired with the Sunday morning audio-video readings by the author herself, the six-week series Let Every Heart Prepare will be the perfect adult forum for Sunday mornings or every day in the church workplace.

Watch for enrollment details soon
from CREDO and the Church Pension Group.



CREDO FACULTY REFLECTIONS Now Available on the CREDO Website

Matthew Stockard
The CREDO Faculty Reflections in the four critical component areas of a CREDO Conference are now available directly on the CREDO website. While the 750 people who are subscribing to these weekly reflections still receive an email notification, other interested readers can go straight to the website and find the series called CREDO Collection.

The published reflections from March 2013 to the present are searchable through a thematic Tag Cloud, and several new reflections are added every week.
SPOTLIGHT ON: Beckwith Conference Center

Beckwith Conference Center     

beckwith Beckwith is a verdant tract of land on Week's Bay in Fairhope, Alabama--a tranquil setting, removed from the everyday, where visitors discover new energy, inspiration, and purpose. What will Beckwith mean to you?

Beckwith will be the location for the new CREDO I Conference for bi-vocational and part-time clergy to be held September 8-15, 2014 -- and it's not too late to apply.  

"The natural setting was relaxing and perfect. Loved the water--it opened up my soul..."
 
"... The Staff showed impeccable hospitality to us the whole time we were there."
