Changing Church for a Changing World (Southwest Michigan)

In the midst of a rapidly changing ministry landscape, Fresh Expressions US invites you to join us for a day of envisioning the unique ways the Holy Spirit might be inviting you to step deeper into mission. During this training you will:

* Catalyze a vision for a church that sends out the everyday people of God to be on mission in their networks and neighborhoods

* Brainstorm ways to connect with people your church may not be currently engaging

* Discover how fresh expressions of church can emerge alongside your traditional church

* Explore creative ways of being the church in the world today
