Building Skills for Member Care Excellence SeminarMember Care in the thick of it: Responding to Traumatic Situations on the Mission FieldJanuary 10-14, 2011 Hume Lake, CA
What others have said from past Building Skills for Member Excellence Seminars:
"I came to this conference with the goal of finding things that would help me help others and I have not been disappointed. However, I was surprised to find things that the Lord spoke to me about in the sessions that have been a tremendous help to me personally in my own life. I believe I will get as much help from some of these tools as those will that I minister to." "This conference has given us a confirmation that yes we can do this. We came not knowing how to begin member care. We realize the main thing is to love them." "This has been an awesome week. God reconnected me to my own MK roots and has also given me a sense of direction and purpose for serving Him for the coming decade." "After attending this conference last year, I couldn't wait to return this year. No doubt it has helped me in the desire of my heart - to provide better member care for those I have the privilege to serve." "This was my second Building Skills Conference - each time I have come away with helpful tools that I am able to implement in my ministry with missionaries on the field."
