FAMILYMINISTRIES<br />
FORUM<br />
In response to the growing number of family<br />
ministry positions being added to the staff of<br />
large churches, a new addition to the 1996<br />
<strong>Leadership</strong> <strong>Network</strong> Forum Schedule is the<br />
Family Ministries Forum. It will be held<br />
September 25-27, 1996 at the Glen Eyrie<br />
Conference Center in Colorado Springs, CO.<br />
WH<strong>AT</strong> IS “FAMILY MINISTRIES”<br />
Family Ministry is defined as ministry to families<br />
as a whole, rather than just age-group<br />
ministry that addresses the needs of members<br />
of the same family in separate events. Pioneers<br />
in the field are developing integrative<br />
approaches to the oversight of children, youth,<br />
and parents/marriage ministries.<br />
WHO IS INVITED<br />
Anyone involved in family ministry, or intergenerational<br />
ministry for at least one year.<br />
Among the issues to be addressed at the<br />
forum are:<br />
▲ transitioning from a traditional to a familyfriendly<br />
ministry<br />
▲ beginning a family ministry from scratch<br />
▲ what is working and what’s not in current<br />
ministries<br />
▲ the future of family ministries<br />
▲ resources for family ministry...people,<br />
books, organizations, ideas<br />
