APC members value honest and affirming dialogue, collegiality and continued
enhancement of pastoral skills and competency, all directed towards
identifying and addressing the spiritual needs and welfare of their
communities, both nearby and globally. Our members seek to give and
receive support from their colleagues, both in personal gatherings and
through meaningful connections made possible by today's technological
world.
The Academy of Parish Clergy is an international organization of clergy
serving in faith communities of all sizes and in a variety of locales.
