Conference Personnel 4 Conference Facility 5 Interactive Discussions Take part in practical and relevant discussions with peers. Glean from each other’s experiences and ideas to return home to your church with practical ideas for implementation! Brainstorm and gain fresh ideas, as well as, learn from others’ suc- cesses and failures. ■ Wednesday, June 26, 1:30 p.m. • Outreach Ideas—Location: Stanley How do you reach out to your ever-changing community? What are some fresh ideas for a community that has stayed consistent throughout the years? How do you bring the lost, the unsaved, the unchurched and make them part of your church family? • Multiethnic, Multicultural Church—Location: Bugatti Interact with pastors who are doing or who are desirous of doing a multiethnic, multicultural ministry. What are the problems that arise and how do you overcome them? How do you transition from a “uni” to a “multi” church? • Church Planting—Location: Steamer Starting a church from scratch can be a daunting task! What are some of the challenges that you face as a church plant? How did you overcome them? What are practical ways that a parent, supporting, or area church can assist in helping a church plant grow to maturity? For Men in Ministry Join John Greening for a candid perspective on local church ministry. John will share eight trends forcing us to re examine the priorities and methods of doing church. How will we respond? Let’s start the conversation. Pastors attending will receive a gift of new books. The session will take place on Tuesday, June 25, in the DeSoto Room immediately following the business hour. For Wives in Ministry Join Daria Greening on Wednesday, June 26, in the Bugattie Room during the workshop hour (10:45 a.m.) for a panel discussion on how to build a close relationship with your husband when immersed in the fatigue and stresses of ministry and family responsibilities.
