Active Status

ELCA Coaching Ministry is growing and changing to better serve the needs of our faith leaders and the world around us. We believe focusing on a consistent, proven, clearly articulated set of priorities and standards will help create an atmosphere of coaching excellence for both our coaches and the leaders we accompany. In addition, we trust providing these benchmark competencies creates consistency in expectations and information while providing an important framework for our synods that are developing cultures of coaching.

Race Relations Coaching
The Journey to Right Relationship - a Christian response

Coaching cohorts commit to four weeks of self-exploration around race relations. We will reflect on our personal story and its impact on race relations. Participants will commit to providing a safe and brave space to share and listen to each other’s story. Through honest dialogue we gain insight and awareness, are open to growth, and greater understanding of our own racism.

Grief Coaching:
Coaching at End of Life (including living losses) and Grief Coaching equips people to walk with those who are facing all the losses of life.

Grieving and mourning are important parts of healing and learning to adjust to life when loss, transition, or death occurs. First and foremost, it is important to recognize your feelings, give yourself time and space to mourn in healthy ways, and take care of yourself after a loss. ELCA Coaching has a cadre of professional grief coaches that can accompany you on this journey.
