A couple days ago I wrote about the first-ever grandparenting conference; today I want to share more with you about this opportunity to strengthen your family ministry by attending a conference which will help you understand how to better engage, equip, and encourage grandparents to pass on a heritage of faith to their grandchildren!First of all, a review of reasons why it benefits your Children's/Family Ministries to have a strong and effective Grandparenting Ministry . . . engaged grandparents help build stronger families - clearly this benefits the families and children in your church! Engaged grandparents can result in families and children who are engaged and growing in their walk with God - again, clearly this benefits the families and children in your church! Engaged grandparents are more likely to become involved in your Children's Ministry - and it is obvious how this benefits the families and children in your church!
Most importantly, engaged grandparents are people who are following the Biblical role God has designed . . . one where grandparents are passing their faith on to their children's children, and this absolutely benefits the families and children in your church!
So, since it clearly benefits your Children's and Family Ministries to have strong and effective ministry to/with grandparents, this conference is an excellent opportunity for you to see how to either build upon what you are already doing with the grandparents in your church, or to become more focused and intentional in how to engage, equip, and encourage them!
Today I'm sharing the basic information about the conference and then tomorrow I'll look at the specific topics which will be covered in general sessions and breakouts!
