Girls' Ministry Training Opportunity

If you're within driving distance of Grand Rapids, Michigan, have I got some great news for you:

Mark your calendars for Thursday and Friday, May 20-21. Use Google Maps to mark the route to the Amway Grand Plaza Hotel. And go online to sign up for the YOULead conference that will include training on the basics of girls' ministry. 

In just two days, you can get the basics of working with teen girls: the needs of teen girls, how to start and maintain a girls' ministry in your church, and issues facing teen girls. You'll also be able to connect with other women in your area who have a passion for teen girls (always one of my favorite part of events like this!) and gather ideas that have worked in girls ministry in your part of the world.

The conference will be led by Michelle Hicks, who brings experience not only from working with girls in her own church, but also from being the mom of three girls. Yes, three girls. She's a irrepressible fireball of a woman who has a heart for God and a deep love for girls.

And then if you need even more inspiration and connection, stay Friday night and Saturday for Living Proof Live with Beth Moore. You might have heard of her.

Pass this blog along to your friends in ministry circles. Friends of friends of friends might be in Michigan and don't know about this great training opportunity.
