It is with great joy and excitement that I announce the newest adult training experience from Life Teen. Introducing, the Life Teen Winter Training Conference, coming to Indialantic, Florida February 19-21, 2012!
You may be wondering, what are the highlights? What makes this training event different? Or in other words, why should I attend? Of course, there are plenty of ways to answer that question, but here are a few of my favorite reasons.
Across the board as I talk with many of you and listen to your joys and struggles, I hear consistently of a deep desire to have a vibrant, effective youth ministry in your parishes. Often in that same conversation I hear the difficulties of working with “volunteers” and the challenges that that brings. More often than not at the heart of the problem is not having spent the time properly “recruiting” Core Members and adequately preparing them for the ministry they are about to undertake.
Whether you are already registered for Life or Edge Support or you are looking into starting, you can sign up for a webinar or two. This is a free service and you do not have to be a Life Teen or Edge subscriber to participate. Webinars are one way that we as a Parish Outreach Team want to support you as in your ministry. We recognize that not everyone can come to a Life Teen and Edge Training Convention or Conference but you still need to be trained and you still need to connect with us as a staff. We also know that time is precious and no one wants to spend days playing phone tag waiting for an answer. Therefore, keeping that in mind, we developed four webinar trainings to support you from your playing field in a time sensitive way.
