A Spiritual Leadership Training Event

9:00 am – 3:30 pm at Belfair Community Baptist Church

Mailing Address: PO Box 160 Belfair, WA 98528

Cost $20 / $25 at the door

with special guests:

Rev. Dane Aaker – Pastor of Centerpoint Church, Colton, CA.  Dane has ministered in Colton since 1985 and has led his congregation through significant transformation, and transition in worship and outreach to a changing culture.

Karen Aaker –  Dane's wife.  Karen has taught systematic theology at Centerpoint Church using Wayne Gruden's study on bible doctrine.  This is her third year of teaching and her class of fifty students range in age from 15 to 89. Karen will discuss the importance of theological education in our local churches, and how people can become teachers of theology without formal biblical education.

Additional Workshop Leaders:

Rev. Patti Duckworth - ABC/NW Associate Executive Minister. Patti will be presenting a workshop From “Have To” to “Want To” and “Can Do”.  Christians know they should be sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ with others who don’t know him, yet most Christians aren’t actively engaged in doing it.  What is behind that?  How can we address and overcome our reluctance in order to be obedient followers?  This session will offer an open discussion about stumbling blocks as well as insights into how God made each of us to share Christ.  We will also look at how God made the body of believers to support us as we share Christ with others and practical ways to connect with this God-created support.

Mike Barrett – Mike is the visual media lead at Manette Community Church, Bremerton, WA.  Mike's workshop will deal with visual media in the local church.

Debbie Mulneix – ABC/USA International Ministries. Debbie will share about her ministry as the liaison between churches of India and Nepal, and the U.S. enabling them to develop volunteer service and mission trip opportunities 

Karl Pettit – Creative Arts and Worship Pastor, First Baptist Pocatello, ID. Karl will bless us with his knowledge and experience in the area of praise teams and music in the church. You can read his blog here. 

Jeff Hawkins – Youth Pastor, First Baptist Church, Chehalis, WA -  Recently returned from Chicago and the Group Publishing Simply Youth Ministry Conference, Jeff  will discuss the elements and particulars for leading our youth to impact the Kingdom.  He will discuss what it takes to develop student leaders, how to recruit, train and empower volunteers, and how to increase our effectiveness as paid pastoral staff working with youth.  Come participate in the discussion, ask questions, and have fun as Pastor Jeff shares what he has learned in his 9 years at FBCC and at the recent conference.

May 14-15, 2010
at The Summit Church in Boise, ID

(formerly Second Baptist church)

with Efrem Smith

The ABC of the Northwest Biennial Celebration offers a special opportunity for the churches of ABC Northwest to celebrate what God is doing in our churches and our life together. Worship, inspiration, training, and warm fellowship will be the focus. We are expecting the Lord to give us fresh hearts for a new time of ministry challenge as we seek Him together. Our keynote speaker, Efrem Smith, will inspires us while providing practical insight for pursuing our vision of “growing healthy, mission-focused churches that multiply disciples.”

The schedule has been compacted for the purpose of making this Biennial a high-energy, high-impact event at a reduced cost. (Good news in this economy, right?) The gathering starts early on Friday morning, May 14 and concludes at noon on Saturday, May 15th. For those arriving in town on Thursday afternoon there will be a complimentary barbecue dinner on Thursday evening followed a prayer service for the Biennial.
