Conference on the Ministry at Michigan Pray

Welcome to the Conference on the Ministry!

Date: Saturday, March 29,2025

Location: 322 W Ottawa St.

This is not your standard ministry conference!! We will examine the church from a historical Acts perspective, explore issues affecting the church, and discuss how we can minister in today's times. Our goal is to equip Pastors, their leadership team, and their board with a current view of the issues of our country and how to address them as an active church in their community.

You will not want to miss this opportunity to learn, network, and activate your church and ministry. Conference cost includes lunch on-site and conference notes. Space is limited, so register today!
