Culture-Specific/Multi-Cultural Church Planting and Ministry Workshop: How To Reach the Next Generation?
We have been blessed with new immigrant groups and ministries. Many 1st generation immigrant churches have done effective ministry to their 1st generation peers and people groups. We are seeing that the 2nd generation is disengaged from their parents’ church, much as we see many millennials disengaged. What are the questions we need to ask and wrestle with? Who can help to reach our children, the next generation, and the ones beyond that?
Intended for pastors of host congregations and 1st generation missionaries, this seminar will help to identify issues and discover missional responses to the questions and concerns of “next generation” faith, discipleship, and involvement.
Hear the stories of 1st generation missionaries and listen to the challenges they will share. Join the discussion and be part of God’s solution! Click here for details and registration.
