Connect Conferences: Reaching and Keeping Young Adults

This fall I will be participating in a series of Connect Conferences around the country. These unique gatherings provide a focused discussion about reaching and keeping young adults. Our hope is to provide an intimate opportunity for key leaders to:

learn more about young adults

understand some of the many reasons why they leave the church

network with other leaders in your area

walk away with practical, promising next steps for ministry

Thom Rainer, Sam Rainer, Jason Hayes, and I will be speaking at the majority of these events. In addition, other speakers include Mark Batterson, Michael Kelley, Heather Zempel, Tim Miller, Jen Hatmaker, Adam Thomason, and more.

Go HERE to learn more about these gatherings and to see who will be in a city near you.

Atlanta, GA - August 13-14, 2009
Nashville, TN - August 20-21, 2009
Charleston, SC - August 27-28, 2009
Washington, DC - September 17-18, 2009
Shreveport, LA - September 24-25, 2009

Hope to see you at one of the Connect Conferences.

Hey Ed (or anyone else w/ relevant knowledge)

Is this kind of thing geared toward 40+, or would a 19-year-old like me find the content valuable/interesting?

Thanks,
Stephen

I won't be able to make any of the conferences - DFW to Shreveport isn't a really long drive, but it is a bit out of the way. I look forward to hearing more about these. We're struggling with reaching Young Adults now and would appreciate the tips and feedback.

Sounds good. Will look for a future date/place closer to Austin, Texas (a town to target if you're talking young adults). If you want a host site in Austin, contact me.

Stephen,

I think you would find it helpful at any age.

Sounds great, but I'm not sure these sites qualify as "across the country," at from a Californian's perspective.

Hey Ed, What about doing one of these in Cleveland, Ohio?
