ADULT TEACHERS AND SUNDAY SCHOOL DIRECTOR CONFERENCES
Adult Sunday School Teachers
- Organizing My Class to Grow. Without a vision for your class, growth and progress will be rare. Without personal enlistment of a team to pursue the vision, the work will be overwhelming. Without planning, the team will flounder. Take steps that lead to numerical and maturational growth this year.
- Discipling Those I Teach. God has given you the awesome responsibility to shepherd those in your class. How can you deepen your relationships? How can you help them take steps to grow in the likeness of Jesus? How can you adjust your preparation and teaching in little ways to focus on their discipleship growth?
Sunday School Directors
- 3 Growth Transitions That Matter. How can your classes connect, invite, and enroll new people? How can your classes teach members about the importance of growing together, serving, and sharing Jesus? How can your classes increase relationships, care, and fulfillment? Planning for these 3 transitions are critical.
- Vision, Goals, and Leadership Matter. Leadership without vision and goals is just taking a walk. Vision and leadership without goals is frustrating. Adding vision and goals to leadership produces results and satisfaction. Principles and time for developing your vision and goals will be provided.
Preschool/children and youth conferences will also be offered.

I have been charged with the task of organizing a CE Retreat on campus for approx 12 Sunday School Teachers around the theme… Building Capacity to Building the Kingdom. Do you have any advices, blogs and/or resources that I may obtain to help me. Thanks and may God bless.
