Women in Part-Time Ministry Grant Participant
Are you an ordained PC(USA) woman serving in a part-time ministry context? Would you like to share your experience as part of a grant-funded research project?

As we emerge from the pandemic, with part-time being touted as the "new normal," I want to research women who are serving in part-time and/or bivocational ministry roles. Women are already doing part-time/bivocational  ministry and have been for a while. I have only ever worked in part-time ministry positions- 14 years in ordained ministry and almost a decade prior to ordination. 

My grant project is entitled "Pastoring Part-Time Well: How Women Ministers, Congregations, and the Church Embrace a Full-Time Call in a Part-Time Position." More information about the Louisville Institute grant can be found here: News - Louisville Institute (louisville-institute.org) The grant is funded through my non-profit, Diakonos Solutions, Diakonos Solutions - Mentoring, Leadership. 

If you would like to share your story- or stories- of part-time ministry, please consider filling out this form and scheduling an interview. I am conducting interviews throughout 2023. I estimate the time commitment to be about 60 minutes for the interview. 

To participate, I'm asking that you are ordained as a Minister of the Word and Sacrament (Teaching Elder) in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) denomination. I have found in my research that the stories of women in ministry transcend denominational lines. However, because this is a research grant, I need to be able to navigate only one system. As an ordained PC(USA) woman, this is the system I know. 

I am currently a bivocational pastor, working in congregational ministry (15 hours/week) and growing Diakonos Solutions. If you have questions, or would like to contact me directly, please email me at susan@diakonossolutions.com. 

Blessings,
Susan
