The Next STICKS Event @ CHURCHPLANTERS.COM 2010! Let's blow it up.

THE STICKS is honored to have been invited to do a pre-conference workshop gathering for the VELOCITY CONFERENCE from CHURCHPLANTERS.com

The line-up is SICK for the main conference [which by the way is ONLY $72 for 72 hours starting THIS MONDAY...so get on it.] The pre-conference workshop will be on day 1 from 9-12pm, and the main conference begins @ 1pm.

Hold on...here is what our team will attempt cover at THE STICKS pre-conference:

1. HOW TO DO A LOT WITH A LITTLE. [little staff, little leadership, little money, little faith?]

2. HOW TO GROW YOUR CHURCH WITH LAY VOLUNTEERS AND BI-VOCATIONAL LEADERS/STAFF. [it can be done, and done well!!!!]

3. HOW TO KEEP MINISTRY IN A PLACE WHERE RELEVANCE MEETS REVIVAL. [you can sit around all day and strategize about the best methods, but if it is not driven by the spirit...you are destined to fail!]

4. THE UNIQUE CHALLENGES AND ISSUES OF ATTRACTING STAFF, DEVELOPING LEADERS, AND OTHER STRUGGLES IN RURAL AND HARD TO REACH PLACES.

5. Q and A PANEL SO YOU CAN BRING YOUR QUESTIONS AND GET PRACTICAL HELP TO WHAT IS HOLDING YOU BACK.

Here is the team that will be there to serve and connect with you:

Greg Oraham [thriving multi-site church of 2K in a S.C. town you've never heard of, pop: 8K!]








Dave Anderson [from failed church plant, to thriving, growing church of around 400+ as a bi-vocation pastor in Alabama]








Charles Hill [launched 4 campuses from a rural town of 2,800, now planting in the rocky soils of Utah].




So glad that an amazing team of people have stepped up to lead THE STICKS into the future to minister to those in small to medium sized towns and hard to reach places so they might have a BIG IMPACT for the KINGDOM!

Check out all the other details about the pre-conference workshop HERE. Stop on by, and be prepared to do some serious networking and be ready for some fresh vision and inspiration. Who knows...maybe we can get some big name dude to stop by and donate some money to your church...maybe, just maybe.

I do know that we will be stealing some of the amazing equipment from Mountain Springs church [that's one STICKS tip...big churches don't miss a piece of equipment or a stray motion light or 2... ;]
