| Give Stroh some credit - he was part of the team that shut down the Latte Church, the one with this logo - a cross resting in a mug of coffee. I call that a real turn-around. |
Seminars will teach leadership skills such as defining reality, establishing a vision, strategic planning, recruiting volunteers, team building, and more by people who’ve done it, including Pastors Elton
Stroh, Jeff Gunn, and Mark Henrich, District President Charles Degner, CEO Mark Wrightsman, and church leaders Bill Meier, Rick Loewen, and Al Greschner.
Workshops that apply leadership principles to critical areas of the church’s work, such as community outreach, worship, children’s ministry, group life, compassion, and financial support will be led by Pastors Matt Vogt, Aaron Christie, Ken Fisher, and Paul Kelm, teachers
Cindi Holman and Phi Leyrer, and lay leaders Bob and Karen Zastrow.
There will be opportunities to network with Church and Change leaders in congregations like yours.

My best advice would be to stay out of Milwaukee County this weekend. The stench will be overpowering.
