Let's Get Certified



May is a month when programming winds down and we find that we have more time to focus on our ministry to Christ's Kingdom.  As the snowbirds depart for their northern homes, we find ourselves catching up on those tasks that pile up prior to Easter.

This is a great time to join the Administrative Personnel Association of the Presbyterian Church (USA) and begin taking online classes towards becoming certified in Church Administration.  Up to ten hours of online professional seminar credits can be taken per level.  Information about membership and certification can be found on the Florida Region website.

The Mission of the APA is to offer opportunities for professional development and personal growth for those called by God to serve as support staff of the Presbyterian Church (USA).  This is accomplished by providing continuing education events for certification and occasions for fellowship, worship and spiritual nurture and prayer at both National and Regional meetings as well as seminary sponsored training events.

Led by ministers and experts in their fields, the Administrative Personnel Association gives us an exceptional value by combining career and spiritual development into one cost-effective event, the 2012 National APA Conference in San Antonio from September 12th through September 16th.

For more information about joining the APA and attending the conference, visit the Florida Region website or contact Barbara Prieto, Florida Region President, at 305-666-8586.
