A present with a big bow sat on the table in front of everyone. It had all their names on it and they began a discussion about who should open it. They waited so long to decide that the chocolate cake in the box was no longer edible. Don’t let this happen to you!
An even better present sits before all of us today in the form of a one-of-a-kind conference; Moving Forward in Faith. It is intended as a gift to all our Canada East churches as a special opportunity to see, meet and encourage one another. It is a time to learn and grow in discipleship and give you the how-to resources of mission. It is both the icing and the cake! In our world that continues to change, we need to be able to continue to discern how to reach out to our families and communities better. This is a great place to do just that.
Our plenary speaker, Caesar Kalinowski is a dynamic speaker who understands discipleship. Many of us have been blessed through both his writings and his podcast material. If you need to get a taste, go to Caesar's website and download his latest e-book, Be the Church, for free. You will also benefit from a number of chosen workshops including young adult presenters, and experienced practitioners. There will be 3 extra lunch time gatherings for you to ask questions and learn from three more great ministries. There is also a bus tour for those who would like to see mission in action in the area. Don’t wait—register today!
Like this conference, the word “Be” is intentional. That means it’s a word that shows an important purpose. Today is your day to be intentional and register for Moving Forward in Faith.
Rip the bow off, invite others to join you and register with those who have already done so. It will be worth your time. It will be a day of encouragement for all. Mark your calendars for November 15-16 in Burlington, ON!
