Pastoral Experiences

EQUIP
Usually the first weekend of March, church leaders are invited to come for a day of training to refresh your vision for ministry and renew your commitment to serving. Bring a team of leaders from your church to be equipped in their area of ministry!
Let God rekindle your flame for serving Him!
"So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up"
Ephesians 4: 11-12

GLOBAL LEADERSHIP SUMMIT

August 11-12, 2016
The GLS is an annual world-class leadership event broadcast from the Willow Creek Community Church campus near Chicago. This is an excellent opportunity to develop leaders of all types, as well as challenge leaders to new levels of leadership thinking and growth possibilities. We hosted the GLS last year and all of those who attended were inspired and challenged to grow as leaders. Save the date, and let your leaders know as well!
