A director will be hired to lead the center in 2022 and plan a conference designed to encourage dialogue between different branches of Quakerism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fum.org\/\">Friends United Meeting<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.everence.com\/\">Everence<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernyearlymeeting.org\/\">Western Yearly Meeting<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/bethanyseminary.edu\/\">Bethany Theological Seminary<\/a> are among the organizations partnering with ESR on this major initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhile we have strong international and cross-cultural capacities, many of our meetings and churches in North America are languishing as congregations decline and members struggle with internal conflicts,\u201d said Kelly Kellum, general secretary of Friends United Meeting, a global community of Quakers consisting of 39 yearly meetings and associations, 11 of which are based in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAdditionally, we discovered many Quaker leaders feel under-resourced and ill-equipped to effectively address these congregational realities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Colin Saxton, the North American Ministries Director of FUM and a stewardship coordinator for Everence, a faith-based financial services organization, said ESR\u2019s vision will strengthen his ability to work with Quaker communities and organizations nationally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs someone committed to building healthy, faithful, and growing Quaker churches and meetings, I am excited about the launch of ESR\u2019s Quaker Center for Transformational Leadership,\u201d Saxton said. \u201cOver and over, I hear congregations and Friends organizations asking for help in identifying and nurturing current and emerging leaders. Now is a crucial time for the Religious Society of Friends to take this seriously. I look forward to partnering with ESR in this work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlham received a nearly $50,000 grant from Lilly Endowment in March in the first phase of the Pathways to Tomorrow Initiative, a three-phase initiative. Two consultants collaborated with ESR faculty and students to interview dozens of alumni, leaders in Quaker Meetings and other denominations throughout the country, to discern ways the seminary can adapt its educational programs to meet the challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe believe ESR can and should be a resource and networking hub for congregational leadership, particularly for Quakers, but not exclusively,\u201d said Jim Higginbotham, associate dean and professor of pastoral care at ESR. \u201cWe also learned through our research in talking with non-Quaker alums that they enrolled at ESR because of our values \u2014 collaboration, integrity, community and so forth. They think those are the values that are needed in congregations today.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis vision has created a lot of excitement around the possibility of bringing a large and diverse segment of the Religious Society of Friends together in ways that just doesn\u2019t happen today,\u201d he continued. \u201cIf we can get the membership of the Friends United Meeting, the Friends General Conference, evangelical, and perhaps conservative Quakers together to talk about the future of Quaker congregations and meetings, that would be a monumental thing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Higginbotham believes the Center can also serve diverse faith leaders from different denominations closer to campus. \u201cWe want to offer them the resources \u2014 certificates, professional networks, workshops \u2014 that the Center will develop.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlham has received the maximum amount awarded by Lilly Endowment in phase II of the Pathways to Tomorrow Initiative. It is a three-phase initiative designed to help theological schools across the United States and Canada as they prioritize and respond to the most pressing challenges they face as they prepare pastoral leaders for Christian congregations both now and into the future. ESR is one of 84 theological schools that will benefit from a total of more than $82 million in grants being made through the second phase of the Pathways initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTheological schools have long played a pivotal role in preparing pastoral leaders for churches,\u201d said Christopher L. Coble, Lilly Endowment\u2019s vice president for religion. \u201cToday, these schools find themselves in a period of rapid and profound change. &nbsp;Through the Pathways initiative, theological schools will take deliberate steps to address the challenges they have identified in ways that make the most sense to them. We believe that their efforts are critical to ensuring that Christian congregations continue to have a steady stream of pastoral leaders who are well-prepared to lead the churches of tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lilly Endowment Inc. is an Indianapolis-based private philanthropic foundation created in 1937 by J.K. Lilly, Sr. and his sons Eli and J.K. Jr. through gifts of stock in their pharmaceutical business, Eli Lilly and Company. Although the gifts of stock remain a financial bedrock of the Endowment, it is a separate entity from the company, with a distinct governing board, staff and location. In keeping with the founders\u2019 wishes, the Endowment supports the causes of community development, education and religion and maintains a special commitment to its founders\u2019 hometown, Indianapolis, and home state, Indiana.&nbsp; The primary aim of its grant-making in religion, which is national in scope, focuses on strengthening the leadership and vitality of Christian congregations in the United States. The Endowment also seeks to foster public understanding about religion and lift up in fair, accurate and balanced ways the contributions of people of all faiths and religious communities make to our greater civic wellbeing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow
