Summer Summit on Stewardship 

We welcome Reverend Mike Slaughter, lead pastor at Ginghamsburg UM Church to this year's stewardship conference.  Mike identifies himself as Chief Dreamer of Ginghamsburg Church where he is in his third decade of ministry. The Summit promises to bring bold, creative ideas that can help boost your church's ministry. 

Saturday, July 20  9:00 - 3:00 pm

(Registration and light breakfast 8:00 - 8:45 am)

 Here are a few of Mike's talking points:

• Strategic Stewardship: Exposing Two Myths

        People don't want to talk about money.     People don't want to give.

• The Local Church Strategic Stewardship Plan
• Developing and Recognizing Kingdom Investors
• Freeing People from the Burden of Debt
• 10-10-80 Strategy
