NEW MODELS OF MERGERS AND COOPERATIVE MINISTRIES

Churches come in all forms of health: some are healthy and growing, others are maintaining the status quo, and some are declining. But they all have one thing in common – they want to be fruitful and healthy. One way this can happen is through partnerships or mergers. Attend this workshop and explore new ways your church might become healthier through a merger. Featuring Rev. Dirk Elliott, Director of Congregational Vibrancy, Michigan Conference.

Date: Saturday, October 6, 2018, from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm
Location: Faith UMC, 15101 80th Avenue, Orland Park, IL 60462
 

Fee: $10 for lunch
