Regional Training

As I've traveled around the country over the past few years, I've sensed a growing need for student ministry leaders and volunteers to gather together regionally for practical training and encouragement on reaching this generation for Christ.

We at Shift–the student ministries segment of the Willow Creek Association–have been dreaming and praying about how to meet this need, and we're so excited to invite you to our first regional training events, beginning this weekend.

Join other youth pastors and volunteer youth leaders in your area for a dynamic half day of training, designed to help you discover ways to develop a "Be With Community"–a student ministry where every leader understands and practices the value of coaching and mentoring students to become complete followers of Jesus Christ.

We'll also spend time talking about practical ways you can develop a "Be With Lifestyle"–a life centered around practical mentoring tools helping students in the spiritual formation process.

We've worked to make this training as affordable as possible, and are really pleased to offer the entire half-day of training for only $29!

The training, led by seasoned youth ministry veterans that I personally believe in from the LEAD222 network, could be just what you and your student ministry team need as you begin a new ministry season this fall.
