Event Title: SFL2-2 – Personal Leadership Competencies
07-Oct-2011 to 09-Oct-2011 Past Event
Venue: Rumah Methodist, Frasers
Organizer: ICM
Remarks & Theme: Retreat Facilitators: Dr Herbert Tan & Team

WHAT IS SFL WEEKEND?
The SFL Weekend is a strategic 3D2N intensive stay-in
weekend of a process-oriented training and learning in
spiritual formation and leadership within the TRAC
community setting. Four major themes of spiritual
formation and leadership will be covered over a period of 2
years, beginning with the issues related to the formation of
the leader and his inner life. This will then be the foundation
on which all other building blocks of leadership competencies
and spiritual formation are added on.

HOW WILL SFL WEEKEND LOOK LIKE?
These weekends integrate some didactic teaching
components with guided meditation and personal
reflection/prayer periods. There will be intentional time
carved out to process learning and reflection within
a spiritual mentoring relationship and small group
community.

THE OBJECTIVES:
To equip leaders of TRAC local churches with the theology
and practice of spiritual formation and leadership
development. The goal is to nurture a holistic development
of a spiritual leader who understands that the ultimate goal
of the spiritual life is the love for God and for our neighbour.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND:
LCEC, PCT, Bible Study Leaders, Small Group Leaders,
Ministry Leaders and all who are interested in spiritual
formation of the leader.

HOW WILL THIS BE RUN?
REGIONALLY
Our main purpose for running this at a regional level instead
of at the local church is so that leaders from other churches
can have the opportunity to connect with each other and
share life together for a weekend. It is ICM's goal to nurture
the connectional spirit which is the essence of Methodism!
May we learn to encourage one another in ministry, share
one another's burden and witness the work of God in the
larger Church of the Lord Jesus Christ!
