Over the past fifteen years, Grace in Action has developed workshops, courses, and coaching specifically for WELS/ELS affiliated ministry teams based on research and best practices. We understand your unique challenges, apply our expertise, and partner with you to move your ministry forward.
Empowering Your Ministry.
WHO WE SERVE
Individuals
Your gospel ministry is important, but burnout is real. It’s hard to find balance when there is always more to do. By taking a proactive approach you can establish healthy physical, emotional, and spiritual habits that will guide your journey from burnout to balance.
Teams
Dysfunctional team dynamics, ineffective meetings, and poor communication can drain your energy and compromise your gospel mission. We’ve been there, too. With front-line experience and a proven toolkit of resources, our consultants have supported over 200 WELS/ELS-affiliated schools, churches, and ministry groups in building unified and effective teams to carry out their work in God’s Kingdom.
Ministries
When the mission is clear, but the path forward is not, you need a trusted partner to help guide the way. Our consultants have prayerfully guided dozens of strategic plans, and don’t leave you without support - we teach you how to use the tools you need to achieve your goals with vision, traction, and organization so you can confidently move your ministry forward.
Let’s Get Aligned.
Our quick assessment quiz helps you identify your strengths, address weaknesses, and see the best path forward.
In just a few minutes, you’ll get a clear picture of where your organization is today—along with practical insights on how to reach progress.
