Pastoral Leadership Study Day

Pastoral Leadership Study Days (PLSDs) are a collaborative effort of the Loras College Archbishop Kucera Center for Catholic Intellectual and Spiritual Life and the Archdiocese of Dubuque in order to provide professional development for parish leaders through focusing on topics related to the vision and mission of the Archdiocese. Each year, there is a Fall PLSD (typically in October) and a Spring PLSD (typically in April).

The Spring 2021 Pastoral Leadership Study Day will take place virtually on Tuesday, April 13th from 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM, with an optional Q & A and discussion session from 1:00-2:00 PM. The topic will be “The Art of Accompaniment” with keynote speaker Kristin Bird (www.burningheartsdisciples.org). There is no cost to participate.

An email was sent on April 4th from “DBQArchFF” with instructions for accessing a secure webpage to register for this Zoom event. Each person will need to register individually (rather than one person registering a group). Prior to registering, please discuss as a parish staff how you would like to be assigned to a breakout room for discussion, with the options being: 

1. Each person is randomly assigned to a breakout room (with people from other parishes).
2. A private breakout room is set up for your parish/cluster/school staff, who will each be joining individually.
3. Your parish/cluster/school staff will be participating together from the same location, so your discussion will take place in-person.

For event questions, contact Matt Selby: m.selby@dbqarch.org or (563) 556-2580, x233.
