Scholarships Available for Leadership Summit

August 8-9, 2013

One of the outstanding leadership development opportunities available to church leaders each year is the annual live teleconference of the Global Leadership Summit offered by the Willow Creek Association.  Missouri sites for the event include:  Pleasant Valley Baptist Church in the Kansas City area, Living Word United Methodist Church in St. Louis, Remingtons’s (Ridgecrest Baptist Church) in Springfield, La Croix Church in Cape Girardeau, Parkade Baptist Church in Columbia, and Frederick Boulevard Baptist Church in St. Joseph.  The dates are Thursday and Friday, August 8-9, 2013, from 9:00am till 5:30pm. 

For several years, Churchnet has offered scholarships for persons wishing to attend, especially targeted toward those who are experiencing the event for the first time.  Again this year these scholarships will be offered to Missouri church leaders.  The regular cost for this event is $265.00, but Churchnet provides scholarships for first-time attendees of this Willow Creek-sponsored event for a price of ONLY $60.00.  This special price is for those who have not previously attended a Willow Creek Summit event, and for persons registering by May 18.

Due to a special partnership with the Parkade Baptist Church site in Columbia, we can offer a price of $99 rather than our normal discounted price of $149, and first time attendees (up to two per church) may attend in Columbia for only $20.00.

For those who have previously attended a Willow Creek Summit, but wish to take advantage of the Churchnet Willow Creek membership and early bird discount, we can register you for the reduced price of $149.00, if you register by May 18.  To register for a seat at the Summit, send your name, your address, church name, phone number and email address to Bob Perry at bperry@thechurchnet.org or you may call Bob at 888-420-2426, ext. 706 and provide the registration information and indicated the site you wish to attend.  Make plans know to be a part of this two-day leadership event.

Bible Verse of The Day

“[A Church Divided Over Leaders] I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought.” (1 Corinthians 1:10)
