Boundary and Ethics Training
Dear Siblings in Christ, The Synod of the Covenant is pleased to share that Boundary and Ethics Training sessions are available throughout 2026 that meet the requirements of the PCUSA Book of Order and is appropriate for both teaching elders and ruling elders. As a reminder, the PC(USA) Constitution in the Book of Order mandates that all councils —including sessions— adopt and implement sexual misconduct policies “which shall include requirements for training which includes the topics of sexual misconduct and child sexual abuse prevention . . . at least every 36 months.” (G-3.0106)
For questions or assistance with registration, please contact Emily Franson at efranson@lakemichiganpresbytery.org.
Grace and peace,
The Synod of the Covenant
