2012 Annual Meeting Announcement
The Church at the Crossing Indianapolis, IN
Monday, October 1
Registration begins at 8:30a.m.
(Coffee and snacks provided)
Our Speaker:  Dr. Al Ells, M.C. is an ordained minister and founder-director of Leaders that Last Ministries ™, a not-for-profit organization that equips Christian leaders to finish well. He is a gifted coach, counselor, speaker and leadership consultant. As a Master Coach, Al has helped many pastors, executives, and denominational leaders find and fulfill their destiny in Christ. Becoming A Transformational Leader While churches are in the transformation business, the reality is that most local congregations need to be transformed. They simply are not having the effect on their communities that God intends. When we think about transforming a local congregation so it can reach its God-given potential, we normally think the starting point is the congregation itself. However, deep change must happen in the life of the leader(s) before it happens in the church. As the interior world of the leader is changed, the congregation is transformed. Al Ells will be leading us in three sessions that are designed to raise your level of leadership. - Raising your Transformation Quotient
- The 'Right Ethics' Empower Board and Senior Leader Transformation
- Transformative Personal Safeguards: Boundaries, Margins and Burnout
