Breakout Sessions:
Using Social Media as a Ministry Tool
Griffin Hinde & Kate Merrick, Hill City
In this breakout we will discuss how to use social media platforms to inform, equip, and inspire your church body and unchurched people in your city. We will share how you can communicate the culture of your church through media. We hope you will leave encouraged to use social media as an effective ministry tool!
Upside Down or Belly Up?
Aaron Householder, AMS, Heartland Church Network
Our church is declining, but revitalization and replanting seem scary. How can we be honest about our church? What can we do to turn things around?
The Simple Priorities of Women’s Ministry
Lyndsay Cullum, FBC-Brookline
Feeling overwhelmed and discouraged in the good work of ministering to women? Women’s ministry is more than events and decorations. Like all ministries of the local church, women’s ministry should glorify God and lead to a greater love for Christ. Come to this session as we consider the simple priorities of women’s ministry: God’s word, discipleship, and community.
Neighborhood Mission Trips: A New Way to Love and Reach Your Neighbors
David Burton, Ridgecrest Baptist
Americans no longer love their literal neighbors because the majority do not know the names of their neighbors! You cannot love someone you do not know. Thankfully, a neighborhood mission trip opens a new door for churches and members. A neighborhood mission trip is an opportunity to discover the opportunity right where you live. It also provides a chance to discover those living nearby so you can love them as Jesus commanded.

Chuck Williams, South Gate Baptist
This presentation will discuss the challenges, goals, and rewards of teaching a small group in the local church. Discussion will center around teacher qualifications, practical guidelines, and classroom management.
