CCCC Peacemaker Certification Training

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the sons of God.”

The CCCC Ministry of Conference Care, in partnership with Peacemaker Ministries, is pleased to announce three two-day training events especially for CCCC members to provide specialized training in Christian Conciliation (peacemaking). This training will teach you about your own conflict style, will provide specialized training in biblical reconciliation of conflict, and will offer the basics of mediating conflict resolution between others. Please join us for one of these regional events:

  • High Plains Region – September 28-29, 2012 at Salem Congregational Church of Scottsbluff, Nebraska
  • Great Lakes Region – October 26-27, 2012 at First Congregational Church of Lodi, Ohio
  • Upper Midwest Region – November 9-10, 2012 at Woodbury Community Church of Woodbury, Minnesota

While this training will be invaluable to everyone within the CCCC Family (and all are welcome to participate), the pathway for CCCC Peacemaker Certification will only be offered to credentialed members of the Conference who satisfactorily complete the certification process. CCCC Area Representatives may attend these training events free of charge. Please note that this is a CCCC Certification and not the full certification provided through Peacemaker Ministries.

Taught by Dr. John Kimball, CCCC Director of Conference Care & Church Development, you will learn practical steps to foster a “culture of peace” within your own life and ministry. Dr. Kimball has completed Peacemaker Ministries’ Advanced Church Conflict module and has been helping local churches with the peacemaking process since 2006.

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Dr. John Kimball is offering a great opportunity to learn the skills of Peace Makers. Below is a preview of this seminar. We invite you to come and enjoy a change of pace that will be spiritually uplifting and encouraging, while learning important relational skills.

We have a wide range of motels and hotels that are relatively close to the church. About eight miles away we have a Super 8, Comfort Inn, Hawthorn Suites, (I believe that the first mentioned Hotels will have a continental breakfast. Please call to confirm). Closer and very economical motels are the Plaza Motel and Lodi Motel. There are also several campgrounds nearby for the more adventurous, who might have the opportunity to camp. The Hawthorn Suites are very nice and some rooms have refrigerators and stoves.

For those who cannot afford a hotel room, there are some families that will be willing to provide a room for a single or a couple.

Meals. After speaking with John, We’re planning to have lunch at Church in the fellowship hall. Dinners will be on your own and you’ll be given ample time (Like Conference) to go and have a relaxing dinner. Restaurants within walking distance: Lighthouse Family Restaurant (great hamburgers and home cut fries, other dishes are good) Subway, Great Wall Chinese (small dinning area, but never had a problem finding seating, if its nice weather, you might want to sit in the square or bring it back to church) Driving time varies from a few minutes to ten -twelve minutes. Moxie’s Bar and Grill, Hoovers Restaurant Bar and Grill. (Family Dinning room) Bob Evans, KFC, Burger King, Taco Bell, McDonalds, and Wendy’s, TA Country Inn (Home cooking and buffet) There are also many restaurants to choose from in Medina and Wooster which are about twenty minutes away.
