The Episcopal Diocese of Oklahoma is
pleased to present Hope for the Harvest:
The Small Church at its Best. This special workshop is offered by our
diocese in partnership with the Arkansas-Oklahoma Synod, our
local ELCA Lutheran Churches. It is open to
all churches who have Average Sunday Attendance up to about 60. (Special
consideration will be given to larger churches upon request.)
What
is It?
A one-day conference to empower clergy
and lay teams from small-member churches to explore, imagine, pray, and create
plans to accomplish God’s mission in their communities. We will have a great
speaker in the morning, and in the afternoon we will share ideas with other
churches.
Who
is Our Speaker?
Carrie
Boren Headington is
Canon Evangelist in the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas. Carrie works with Christian
churches in personal and congregational evangelism, equipping them to be the
hands, feet, and mouthpieces for God in their everyday lives. She will appear
live at the Feb. 26 event, and by video at the March 9 events.
Who
Should Come?
Lay-clergy
teams from small-membership Episcopal and Lutheran congregations in Oklahoma
should attend. We suggest that each congregation send a team of three to
twenty-five people who have done some advance preparation (we will send you
that assignment when you register) and are ready to engage.
