A Whirlwind 60 days

I am just getting my voice back. We have been on an incredible pace. I was looking back on the last 60 days. Remarkable...

Earlier this year we made a very good decision. In the past when we have helped churches conduct Rites of Passage, we have had a day of training to prepare/train them to do ROP on their own. At the request of Pastors, we made a shift to use that day to train Pastors and leaders regarding strategies for Intergenerational Ministry. This is an 8 hour "fire hose" experience for leaders. We have titled the seminar "Anchor Points." The response has exceeded out initial expectations.

Here are some quick stats..... In the last 60 days we have had the privilege of training about 135 Pastors and church leaders representing 10 churches in 5 states. In addition, we have had leaders from 2 other ministries attend.

Those stats do not include several additional meetings/venues where we have had the oportunity to help leaders embrace the issues of intergenerational ministry.

We have two more "Anchor Points" scheduled in the coming months. In October we will be in Dublin, OH (NW of Columbus) on Monday, Oct 6 and then in Buellton, CA on Friday, Nov 14th.

There are several already scheduled in 2009 from PA to WA.

As a note for prayer....ACG events launch in Sept after Labor Day and we are committed until Thanksgiving. On several weekends we have several speakers at men's conferences accross the country sharing the message of intergenerational ministry.
