Our home missions regional guy in Western Canada (Martin Content) suggested the strengthfinders and it was a blessing as well; great stuff. We (Woodynook - Lacombe, Alberta) have led an evening workshop called "Colours" that keeps the personality profile very simple (just 4 colours)in which our intergenerational missions team participated. Youth, young adults and adults have a new understanding for each others participation in the church and in missions. I also appreciate your comments, Marcel, on the 'embracing the elders.' I do wonder about participating in administration, pastoral elders and full council. I have gotten along with all five senior pastors I've worked with, and have fostered a relationship where we represent and support each other in the meetings that only one of us are at - perhaps that's why I wonder.
