SERVICES (Cont'd)
ORGANIZATIONAL ASSESSMENTS
We collaborate with you in discerning and determining where you’ve
been, where you currently are, and where you’d like to go as a group or
organization.
Articulate your vision,
mission, values, goals, objectives, or develop a strategic plan through
consultation with the Sycamore Project team.
EVALUATION AND SCREENING TOOL DEVELOPMENT
We assist in developing methods of evaluating and screening candidates interested considering formal ministry.
For
example, we develop screening tools to assist in the determination of
suitability of candidates for holy orders. Such screening tools are
developed to assist with the discernment process regarding admission of
candidates to the seminary or Holy Orders.
Such
screening tools are intended to be used primarily by admissions and
formation personnel. It is hoped that such a tool will illuminate areas
of strength and growth – as well as potential areas of concern. VOCATIONAL DISCERNMENT
We assist formators in the evaluation of candidates for Holy Orders,
considering various aspects of human development and formation,
vocational call and leadership ability.
CRISIS INTERVENTION
We
respond to crisis calls by gathering information pertaining to
presenting situations, determining immediate needs, and providing
direction and guidance as indicated.
REFERRAL RECOMMENDATIONS
We
respond to enquiries by clergy, seminarians and priests within the
Ottawa area regarding specifics needs. Possible referral options are
discussed and suggestions/directions given.
RESEARCH
We
