The Future of Ministry is Now: What support is needed? What support is missing?

The Future of Ministry is Now:
What support is needed? What support is missing?

Thursday February 15, 2024
1:30pm ET - online

in collaboration with Acadia Divinity College

We know that the need for personal and professional development for vocational ministers in a rapidly changing world is clear. Join us for a one-week community learning opportunity with Danny Zacharius from Acadia Divinity College. In true New Leaf fashion, we will be surfacing the genius in the room and identifying specific, immediate, and potentially future skills and supports that pastors and ministers in church and parachurch ministry need to meet the challenges they face in Christian leadership. This will be a robust and helpful conversation for those engaged in ministry of all types. 

Learning Centre sessions are recorded and made available afterwards for those who sign up but cannot attend in person

Danny Zacharias

Danny Zacharias grew up in Winnipeg (Treaty 1 territory), with his maternal ancestors (Cree/Anishinaabe) inhabiting the areas of Treaty 1 and Treaty 5 territory for many generations. After completing his Bachelor of Arts at Providence College, he and his wife Maria moved to Mi’kma’ki (Nova Scotia) to complete his Master of Divinity and Master of Arts (Theology) at Acadia Divinity College. While working part-time at ADC, Danny completed his PhD in New Testament studies through Highland Theological College (University of Aberdeen). During his time serving at ADC, Danny also completed the process of ordination with the Canadian Baptists of Atlantic Canada and serves regularly in his local church. Danny also carries administrative responsibilities relating to the Master of Arts (Theology) program and the Hayward lectures. In July 2022, he began serving as Associate Dean responsible for curriculum. In addition to his role at ADC, Danny is a faculty member of NAIITS: An Indigenous Learning Community. More than any of these achievements, Danny is most proud to call Maria his wife, Lex, Jack, and Hudson his sons, and Ella-Rose his daughter.
