ACTIVITIES
The Community of Christ Professional
Teachers/Educators organization was originally formed in
1994. Since that time, the level of activity has been fairly
limited - it's hard to keep activities going when the main meeting
time occurs only once every other two years at World Conference. With the Internet as a tool, though, we hope to
change that. Some of the activities currently being
contemplated include:
-
providing scholarships to students planning
to enter the field of education. Want to
apply for a scholarship?
-
see a listing of past and current
scholarship winners!
-
working to raise the quality of
pedagogy in our congregations.
-
providing informal mentoring
for colleagues of like faith.
-
networking with sisters &
brothers with similar teaching assignments, sharing ideas &
anecdotes.
-
addressing projects or
educational problems in our communities or around the world.
-
providing an annual
newsletter with news of interest to
educator-members and friends of the Community of Christ
Church.
The organization has already
been an active contributor to supporting "Friends
United" in Honduras.
If
you are a professional educator, your first step is to join
us, then continue to dialogue with the members.
