DAY 3 Alternative - Friday, October 21CHURCH RESTART DAY | ||
|---|---|---|
Time | Topic | Speaker |
| 9 a.m.-4 p.m. | On Day 3 of the conference, church leaders can either spend the day on campus participating in the conference sessions noted above, or they can choose to focus on church restarts. In the morning, participants will visit Medway United Methodist, a rural, small town church about 20 minutes from Ginghamsburg. Seven years ago, it was dying. Now it averages over 400 in attendance, reaching the unchurched in relevant ways. In the afternoon, the team will visit Fort McKinley Church, Ginghamsburg’s urban restart, located in one of the most economically challenged neighborhoods in Dayton. The Fort has grown in attendance from 40 to 400 since July 2008, now filled with urban missionaries and neighbors who are revitalizing their community. After you register, we will contact you to find out your Friday preference! | Medway & Fort McKinley Teams with Host Mike Slaughter |
