Dear Pastors / Elders and Deacons,
Pastors/elders (and others) are invited to join us for a seminar called Equipping Elders. This annual event is “spring training” for the spiritual leaders of local churches — encouraged to attend together. The speaker will again be Alex Strauch, who has served for 40+ years as an elder at Littleton Bible Chapel near Denver. (Alex's website)
Alex will bring us two plenary talks. The day also includes a Question & Answer session with Alex, and a small group breakout session, with an opportunity for greater focus and interaction on specific topics
Since we'd like ALL your Elders to attend together, there is one price per church ($75) regardless of how many attend from your church (scholarships are available). All individuals need to register online by name, with one primary contact designated per church. Online registration now open...
We encourage you and your fellow Elders, prospective Elders – and Deacons – to attend this seminar together. There will be coffee and time to fellowship with other leaders from around the Capital District and beyond. We'd be honored if you and your team would come. You will be encouraged and challenged to grow as leaders of your church. It is our desire to host one of these seminars every Spring over the next few years.
