About This Quote
When you are at work, you feel motivated to do the best job that you can because you are in a position of leadership. You will always try to do your best in everything that you do. However, when a pastor transitions in a parish, there is always concern about who is leading the parish in the future. If the new pastor does not start by inviting members to participate in their lives, it is obvious that they will not have people willing to participate in their life when it comes time for them to transition out of the parish. That is how important it is to develop a culture of ongoing invitation to leadership, training, and growth in responsibility for your members.
