Beginning Ministry Together: The Alban Handbook for Clergy

Beginning Ministry Together: The Alban Handbook for Clergy Transitions

Beginning Ministry Together is about the transition period between the announcement that one pastor is leaving and the time when another pastor is well settled. The message brought by Roy Oswald and colleagues Jim and Ann Heath is that this is not an impossible time to be survived only with a lot of expert help. Rather, even though the task is complex, committed congregational leaders can handle itâ€”with the help of people who have been on this journey before. Oswald describes how clergy and congregations can better end and begin pastorates. He shows them how to say good-bye and discern their needs for the futureâ€”how to use the open space between pastorates for evaluation and preparation for a new day.
