November 9th, 9:00 am – 2:15 pm
Bring your team to the Underdog Church Accelerator.
Why attend?
Because underdog churches need:
-
Inspiration for your teams without being overwhelmed by a mega-church context.
-
Discussion around ministry principles relevant to the culture of the Northeast and churches under 200.
-
Benchmarks and data relevant to the average-size church in the Northeast.
-
Community with other churches who are passionate about reaching people in the Northeast.
God loves underdogs.
If your church is under 200 in the Northeast, you are an Underdog Church. The accelerator is specifically designed for you and your people. We created an environment where lay pastors, bi-vocational pastors, and volunteer teams can discuss ministry issues specific to the Northeast.
At the Underdog Church Accelerator, you will hear from leaders and volunteers who understand the challenges of the Northeast. We have worked hard to identify and understand the Northeast’s challenges and adapt and overcome them.
The Underdog Church Accelerator not only exists to provide teaching but also true encounters with God through worship and prayer. This, coupled with practical training on innovative ministry methods, provides a one-day experience that will stir a new passion and vision in your church.
God loves underdogs and we do too! We are preparing this day to add fuel to your ministry so you can break 200 in the Northeast.
