Partnership Forum
May 31, 2008
Elim EFC, Puyallup, WA
Do you want to be strategic in your missions ministry? Do you want people to catch a vision for missions that is contagious? Do you want to be involved in ministry that is much bigger than what you could accomplish on your own?
Then this forum is for you.
EFCA CONNECT and Elim Evangelical Free Church are excited to offer the Partnership Forum, focusing on learning how your church can engage in focused collaborative cross-cultural ministry partnerships. You will also have the opportunity to hear about current ReachGlobal partnerships in Congo, Indonesia/Pacific Asia, China, Europe and Middle East/North Africa, and the U.S.

Comments from previous summits:
"I enjoyed the practical presentation in the women's ministry classes as well as hearing from the other churches. It was nice to hear...of the different tools that are available to minister to missionaries also...and...to have my eyes opened to the different levels of need."
"I really enjoyed the conference last Saturday and would go again this Saturday if I could. I learned so much and was so inspired."
"Everything I learned was practical and immediately applicable to our situation."
