SUMMARY:Church Administrator and Secretary Gathering
DESCRIPTION:All church admins and secretaries are invited to a monthly Zoom gathering at 8:30 a.m. (PDT). This event is hosted by Marjaana Kuivalainen\, Office Administrator at All Saints Lutheran Church in Bellevue\, Washington. You’ll meet online for a relaxed time of connection\, encouragement\, and idea‑sharing between other church admins and secretaries. Please take a moment to register. \nThink of it as a refreshing pause in the week — a chance to breathe\, swap stories\, and pick up something practical for our daily work. Bring your questions\, joys\, and challenges\, and be part of lifting one another up in the ministry of administration and hospitality. \nTo get the conversation rolling\, you’ll reflect on a simple theme question: What’s one thing you appreciate about working with church staff or volunteers? \nFeel free to invite others in similar roles — the more voices\, the richer the conversation.
