Workshops:
Rev. Eun-Joo Park was born and raised in Korea until she moved to Canada in 1991. She was ordained in 2001 by The Presbyterian Church in Canada and was admitted to The United Church of Canada in 2011. Eun-Joo now serves as a Pastoral Relations and Communities of Faith Support minister at the Shining Waters Regional Council after being in pastoral ministry over 23 years. Eun-Joo and her husband, Sam along with their dog, Tessa, live in Hamilton, ON and just became empty nesters as their daughter, Tia, began her university education in September.
Rev. Park will lead a workshop on discipleship through the lenses of transitional and cooperative ministry.
How can we translate the many successes of discipleship within The Presbyterian Church in the Republic of Korea to our United Church context? Rev. Taylor Croissant will explore congregational discipling for children, youth, adults, and seniors.
