Evangel Church | Holton, KS I November 13th & 14th
Registration is now open for Lay Ministry Training on November 13th & 14th, 2026.

CLM Foundations - This starting course in the Certified Lay Ministers curriculum is required to become a CLM in the Heartland conference. By the end of this course, you will have a firm foundation and understand the essentials of the Bible (scripture), how the Global Methodist Church came to be (our history), what we believe (our theology), and how we are organized (our polity). Please click here for information on required and recommended books. Please read before you come.

Listening and Congregational Care - This is an advanced CLM course designed to build upon the foundation established in Lay Ministry Foundations. This course equips participants with practical and theological tools for caring for individuals and congregations, with an emphasis on pastoral presence, listening, confidentiality, and supporting the spiritual and emotional needs of others within the life of the church. There is one required text for this course. Please read before you come.

Each individual may enroll in one course but not both as the two courses will be taught concurrently. Books and materials must be obtained by the learner separately from course enrollment.
