Sabbatical/ Long-term Leave Application
The purpose of this form is to begin processing the desire for a sabbatical or secondary/tertiary level training school, particularly ones 6months and more. Please work on filling out this form the moment you recognise you have a desire, before you start making plans or conversations about pursuing this kind of time off.
As a small team, we need to process how each person's longer absence fits into the bigger picture of their life vision, into what season we are in as a ministry, as well as what kind of preparations need to be made for you to leave well. Ideally, trips of 6months and longer should be processed 1/2-1year out.
Please recognize that filling out the form is only the first step. Requests must be approved in writing by leadership before your plans are confirmed.
