Stories of Faith in the Southern Ohio Synod for August 4, 2020

 

We are Stronger and Better Together! 
Thank you for your faithful mission support!

 

Conferences are Going Online!

And that’s an opportunity we can’t pass up, because virtual conferences are usually less expensive and more convenient, while also giving us the chance to sample an event we couldn’t get to before.

Stewardship Kaleidoscope is a wonderful stewardship conference that has gone virtual this year! Join Stewardship Kaleidoscope this fall for three consecutive Tuesdays ― Sept. 22, Sept. 29 and Oct. 6 ― at 11:30 a.m. for theological, practical and actionable perspectives. Each presentation will be followed by a live Q&A session allowing additional time to share and learn. For $45, you access three presentations about being the Church in the midst of this crisis and a rapidly changing world, participate in live Q & A sessions, and receive content to help congregations think about stewardship this year.  Register and learn more at https://stewardshipkaleidoscope.org/conference/

 

The Mission Interpretation Ministry Conference is going online this year as well, beginning in August, and meeting approximately once a month through the end of this year.  Two training tracks are offered for “Beginner” and “Advanced” Mission Interpreters.  The Southern Ohio Synod may register up to 5 attendees.  If you are interested in attending, please contact the Southern Ohio Synod Mission Interpretation Ministry Coordinator, Mrs. Josselyn Bennett at JosselynBennett@gmail.com.  Registration closes August 7th, so don’t wait!

 

Finally, the stewardship of leadership and gifts for ministry is crucial to the vitality of our congregations.  Online conferences offer an unprecedented opportunity for both rostered and lay leaders to learn some new skills.  The Resilient Church Academy offers 12 tracks of training 0n a variety of topics over 4-5 weeks at a very affordable cost.  Be sure to check them out, and consider inviting some lay folks to participate too!  https://resilientchurchacademy.com/
