How would you like to attend a free, no-strings attached 2-day training event where I present 10 hours of training that is designed to help you improve your church’s Sunday School ministry? Your group ministry is vital to the health and future of your church. Don’t miss out on a chance to dramatically improve your understanding of group ministry and how to implement positive change throughout your Sunday School. In these post-COVID days, it’s time to get things back on track – or perhaps on track for the first time in a long while.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
The Sunday School Essentials Conference is for the person who is responsible for your church’s ongoing Bible study groups. This person might be:
- A lay leader serving as the church’s Sunday School Director
- A senior pastor
- A Minister of Education or a Discipleship Pastor
WHAT IS THE COST?
Lifeway sponsors the event and does not charge attendees to participate in the 2-day training.
