Ministry coaching and consulting

Ministry coaching

One-on-one support

While classes, webinars and other resources can provide much-needed education and formation, Catholic ministers often need more. The Center for Learning’s personalized coaching services provide one-on-one support for liturgical and pastoral ministers in parishes, Catholic schools and other ministries.

Whether a minister needs help building or managing a ministry team, leading ministries in a merged parish, effectively preparing the liturgy, running rehearsals, or just finding balance, ministry coaching can help to improve organization, communication, stress management and more.

Ministry coaching is not mental health care, therapy, counseling, or spiritual direction. That said, it can be a therapeutic experience and is certainly not devoid of a spiritual component. Our coaches are experienced ministers who can help others work through problems in ministry and provide educated advice, as well as a listening ear. 

Individuals benefit greatly by signing up for coaching themselves, but this is also a service that bishops, pastors and others can provide for their staff. As we are increasingly required to do more with less, coaching services can help bridge the gap for diocesan and parish leaders who need to provide their professional ministers and volunteers with support and advice but only have so many hours in a day.

Coaching can improve performance and decrease burnout, improving the effectiveness of Catholic ministries.
