Assistance for Small Churches to Attend National Events
The Canadian conference is pleased to announce a new program to assist smaller churches with restricted income to attend national events (Gathering and Study Conference). This program is one example of our continued efforts to foster community in the conference.
A Pastor plus one leader will be offered “free” registration for Gathering or Study Conference events, including Celebration 2010, when they meet the following criteria:
- Church contributes to Conference Ministry Support Fund (CMSF).
- Membership less than 75.
- Annual receipted gifts (CRA reporting) do not exceed $200,000.
- Church is not receiving other funding from the Conference (e.g. emerging church).
Registrants are responsible for their own accommodations and travel costs.
The Canadian conference hopes to increase attendance at national events where participants will network with the larger MB church family and become familiar with the many resources and ministries the conference offers.
Pastors and/or leaders of smaller churches interested in attending Celebration 2010 should register for this event by completing and sending the Celebration 2010 and Funding for Small Church registration forms (see attached) before May 1, 2010.
Send completed registration forms by:
- By Fax: 1-204-654-1865
- By Mail: Celebration 2010, 1310 Taylor Avenue, Winnipeg, MB R3M 3Z6
