Susan Anslow Williams -- Episcopal priest and turn around specialist for parishes in transition

<p>Our classmate Susan Anslow Williams is an Episcopal priest in the Detroit area. &nbsp;She has spent her time since ordination helping parishes in transition. &nbsp;The past several years have been particularly challenging for Susan's flock and in this episode Susan shares here journey. &nbsp;</p> <p>Here is a bit about Susan's like, from her website <a href="https://revved4change.org/">https://revved4change.org/</a></p> <p>I’m The Rev. Susan Anslow Williams, an Episcopal Priest with more than 25 years’ experience in ordained ministry.</p> <p>My renewed purpose in life and ministry is to help congregations navigate changes, often unwelcome but happening everywhere and to all places of worship. We’ll be turning change into opportunity for intentional, Spirit-led transition. In my case, we’ll be following the words and example of Jesus Christ — within “<a href="http://www.episcopalchurch.org/">the Episcopal branch of the Jesus Movement</a>” (our Presiding Bishop’s term for The Episcopal Church).</p> <p>I’m originally from the Great Lakes state of Michigan; born, raised, and now returned to the Detroit suburbs.&nbsp; I left for college, seminary,&nbsp; and my first 20 years of ordained ministry, but now I’m back along with my husband Eric and our two fabulous daughters.</p> <p>In addition to my years of church experience, I have received a certificate from the ecumenical <a href="http://www.imnedu.org/">Interim Ministry Network</a>. This means I’ve learned and used a variety of practices to evaluate, reframe and energize a congregation over 12-18 months. This is most often called an “interim” or “transition period,” as the church prepares for new, long term leadership or missional identity. Any size congregation can benefit from one or more of the methods led by trained interims like me.</p>
