Spend two days in the beautiful Chippewa Valley connecting, learning, and getting re-energized around your church's mission and vision. We have streamlined the Foundations Conference this year. Registration will begin Thursday, October 5th at 11:00 AM. We'll start with a family lunch so the first thing we'll do is connect as a movement, and then we'll move right into our first Main Session. Our time together will be relevant for pastors, women in various roles, lay leaders, and pastoral staff teams. On Friday at 3:00 PM, after 3 main sessions, 10 topical breakout sessions, and the valuable peer to peer gatherings where you can collaborate with like-minded leaders, we'll send you on your way to enjoy the rest of your weekend with your spouse or team.
This year’s Foundations Conference is focused on your needs. There will be leaders from across the nation as well as our own experienced leaders helping you and your team build on what you and your church are already doing well. We want to help more people meet, know, and follow Jesus, and we recognize that your church’s effectiveness is vital toward that end. More details are coming soon, but don’t miss out on our early bird discounted rate. Reserve your spot now.
