Leadership Workshop

 

The U F L is a lay-led congregation. This gives everyone the opportunity to contribute to the functioning of our Fellowship. Leadership is one of the most important skills for setting goals, getting things done, and keeping the organization viable.

So how does one learn how to do these things? Well, Experience is an excellent teacher, but we cannot order what experiences we are going to have or when they will happen. Therefore, we will hold a workshop on Wednesday, April 9th at Jo Porterfield's home from 10:00 am until 2:00 pm.
