Morning Workshop, 10 am – 12 pm
The Whys and Hows of Faith Formation: Are you a volunteer, ministry professional, pastor or Deacon working in your church? Are you a parent seeking to raise your children in the faith? Or, do you work with a team dedicated to faith formation? This workshop is for you!
In this workshop, the Andersons will cover the Five Principles and Four Key Faith Practices to guiding others in faith formation. You’ll leave with practical resources, tools and practices that you can easily share and implement in your ministry context or home that supports others in faith. Participants will also learn of ways to guard against burn out and fatigue as a ministry professional and volunteer.
Join us for a Free, catered lunch at 12 pm with the Andersons.
Afternoon Workshop, 1 pm – 3 pm
