fini h fini h the race finish the ra e A strategic retreat for pastors and their spouses (if married) to help discern the impact of their past, their current position and a map for serving in their “sweet spot” in the future May 12-15 and Oct. 27-30, 2014 Green Lake provides a Christcentered, collegial and safe environment for the prayerful and thorough evaluation of candidates in a confidential, caring and proficient manner. The process is staffed with carefully selected ministry leaders, mental health professionals and Green Lake staff. Comprehensive assessment instruments, administered and interpreted by licensed professional counselors, discern inter and intra personal insights, emotional intelligence, strengths, behavioral styles and marital health. Due to the nature and intensity of Second Wind, the optimal group size for the desired end result is between five and ten pastors plus spouses. Second Wind is open to all Christian denominations. Second Wind Counselor Steven L. Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor, National Certified Counselor, and Board Certified Professional Christian Counselor. He is a graduate of Trinity International University in Deerfield, IL. He maintains a private practice that serves communities throughout Central Wisconsin. *** Fee: $800 per pastor (includes spouse if married) includes housing, meals (lunch Monday - breakfast Thursday), assessment inventories/instruments and counseling. Transportation to and from the conference is not included in this fee. Scholarships ($100 per person) are available for the pastor and spouses if travel distance is more than 400 miles from the conference center. What past participants have said about Second Wind: • “I wish every couple and ministry leader could get this kind of objective, personal feedback about their personality, passion, ministry, marriage, strengths, etc. This was really helpful to me personally in gaining new insights and confirming some instincts.” • “GLCC is a nice place to do this – facilities great! – staff evaluators great! I felt supported & cared about and that you guys were lovingly trying to help as opposed to scrutinizing.” To find out more about Second Wind or to register, contact Sandra Wimpelberg: (920) 294-7333 [email protected] 21
