Our target demographic is those who are pursuing ministerial licensing (with Pastor approval), newly licensed ministers, and those who have held license up to 10 years.
Our Goals
1. Establish an online presence where fresh content, curriculum and resources can be shared and distributed.
2. Conduct monthly video conferencing sessions with seasoned ministers that will engage and equip the ADVANCE group.
3. Conduct bi-annual regional meetings where ministers can come together for ongoing training and networking.
4. Utilize Oregon District Family Conference to network, celebrate, edify and train new ministers through breakout sessions and fellowship opportunities.
5. Host an Annual Retreat to ENGAGE, EQUIP, EDIFY and EMPOWER our ADVANCE group.
