Kickstart is designed for priests leading parishes who are hungry for renewal, and need some guidance. By joining Kickstart, (pastor) priests will connect with fellow priests on the journey of leading parishes from maintenance to mission. In this workshop, a coach will introduce a cohort of priests to the foundational principles of parish renewal. Beginning with vision, priests will begin to prayerfully discern what God desires for their parish. Priests will then be coached through concepts, which can later be applied to form a high functioning leadership team and establish a structure suited to the mission of the Church and a priest’s vision. Ultimately, these principles will allow priests to transform the parish culture. Parish renewal takes many years. Kickstart is the beginning of Divine Renovation’s coaching process, where priests may enter into when they are ready for the work ahead.
