Next Step Conference 2011 We would be greatly blessed if you are able to join us for our Next Step Conference this year. -Lovett Weems the Director of the Lewis Center for Church Leadership of Wesley Theological Seminary will be our keynote address on Friday and will also be offering a workshop on Saturday. We believe the 2011 Next Step Conference will give you and others from your church who attend practical ideas for strengthening and expanding your mission for Christ. Here's what Paul Nixon, author of I Refuse to Lead a Dying Church and 2010 keynote speaker, had to say about the Next Step Conference: "Ankeny First UMC is an amazing church on three campuses that does innovative ministry on a scale a little closer to Planet Earth than some of the famed midwestern mega-churches. For this reason, their church makes an excellent learning laboratory for others, especially mid-sized churches and small town churches. Their Next Step Conference is a great event for teams of church leaders who are looking to discover and take the bold next steps that will propel them toward the church God intends for them to be! The fact that Lovett Weems is the keynote this year is all the more reason to get to this event and bring a van load with you!" |
