Change (Almost) Everything (November 18-19, 2019)

As the pace of change in our world rapidly increases, the church needs to take stock of where to adapt and where to remain rooted through transition. This activity is at the center of the church in this time and place. We invite you to spend two days with fellow travelers along the way, wondering about the call of the church today. With keynote speakers, engaging workshop leaders, and stimulating conversation with peers, participants will walk away with:

• ideas for ministry in a time of adaptive change

• a network of fellow leaders committed to creativity and innovation

• a refreshed vision for leadership in your context

Keynote presentations will provide inspiration and workshops will enable you to build skills for leadership.
