,The book Part Time Is Plenty: Thriving without Full-Time Clergy by G. Jeffrey MacDonald, is available from major book sellers (locally, nationally and online).  Westminster/John Knox Press, 2020.   ISBN # 978-0664265991.

We encourage you to read this book alongside our conference videos and notes, which are contextualizing MacDonald's insights into part-time ministry with regard to how ABCNYS churches are adapting to new models and how the ABCNYS Region provides support through its ministries, particularly in our Region staff's work with churches, the support of the Regional Enhancement Team, and the ABCNYS Lay Study Program.

Learn more about ABCNYS' Lay Study Program:   ​https://www.abc-nys.org/lay-study-program.html

Questions?  Conversation?  We welcome you to contact Rev. Dr. James Kelsey, Executive Minister and Rev. Jerrod Hugenot, Associate Executive Minister, to talk about how "Part Time Is Plenty" could help YOUR congregation and pastor thrive in your own work together!

Our Part Time Ministry conference is made possible in part by a "Church of the Future" Palmer Grant via the American Baptist Foundation and your church's contributions to the ABCNYS Region Offering.   To donate to support similar programs and initiatives to help ABCNYS support our 273 churches, please give via our PayPal:   ​https://www.abc-nys.org/giving-to-the-region.html

Thank you for supporting our churches!
