FEC is committed to “establishing reproducing churches worldwide.” We’re resolute in that mission, but also recognize it can only be accomplished through healthy churches. And for churches to be healthy, they must be led by healthy pastors and ministry leaders.
Unfortunately, all too often the inner life and health of ministry leaders has been assumed as a given. Soul care for pastors and leaders is often neglected, with investment in the holistic health of ministry people either viewed as a luxury or only addressed after breakdown or failure.
FEC assumes a proactive posture toward the care of its leaders, building in support and encouragement for our credentialed ministers before they find themselves in crisis. The resources presented here represent our key provisions in that journey.
It begins by providing a safe place for conversation, then extends to tangible, practical outlets for intentional, holistic health and growth. We value the personal and inner lives of our servant leaders. Much is at stake, but no one travels this road alone. We are committed to walk this journey together.
FEC’s Soul Care provisions for ministry leaders are offered through 5 primary outlets:
- Intentional Soul Health Cohorts (THRIVE)
- Peer Support & Encouragement
- Self-care Provisions & Resources
- Professional Care & Counseling
- Ministry Mentoring
