Lead Bake & Pray events in your own church or community!
We offer two different programs for those interested in leading Bake & Pray events in their own church or community:
Clergy Training & Retreat:
The clergy training and retreat is designed for lay or ordained church leaders who are interested in leading Bake & Pray events in their own congregation, or those who would like to learn more about the philosophy behind the Bake & Pray event.
This three day event is a time of both continuing education and rest/renewal for church leaders. At the end of the program, you will have the skills needed to lead a Bake & Pray workshop at your church, or to integrate the rhythms behind Bake & Pray into your own church programming.
This event is appropriate for bread makers of all skill levels.

Facilitator Training & Licensing
The full facilitator training and licensing program is for professional bakers and advanced home bakers who are interested in teaching Bake & Pray workshops in your bakery, denomination, or broader community.
You will learn the fundamentals of the Bake & Pray method, how to structure and lead workshops and events, and how to manage the business side of things.
After the training, licensed Bake & Pray facilitators are expected to attend quarterly continuing education calls and an annual in-person facilitator retreat.
The 2026 Facilitator training will take place in August—the exact date to be determined by late January.
