Ministers of education, you are invited to attend the BETA conference. LifeWay provides this gathering as a basic training course for Christian educators.. For three days, we simply focus on foundational principles and best practices of church education ministry. At the conclusion of a recent BETA, participants were asked what they enjoyed the most. Many responded that it is great to be in a room with people who “speak the same language.” They’re not talking about speaking English, Spanish or other languages, but instead referred to people who understood the work of the minister of education.

Church Initiative
What does it take to be a sponsoring church? A desire to share the Word of God: “I came to understand, it’s not how many people who hear my voice on Sunday, it’s how many people hear His voice” ~ Sponsoring church pastor A willingness to invest in the life and family of a church planter: “I need someone I can call; it gets lonely planting a church. I want someone to bounce ideas off of, a sounding board, someone willing to share their experience with me.” ~ Church Planter
Church Planting Resource Group
S ponsoring
A kingdom spirit to give sacrificially their people, resources, and energy for those who have not yet come. “Our church is looking more and more like the New Testament norm, there is a sense of excitement and joy. We are working together for the gospel. Birthing something new is contagious.” ~ Sponsoring Church Member
Will you pray about becoming a sponsoring church?
Sponsoring Church Initiative – 25% of Mission Ohio Churches significantly involved in church planting by 2020. (Currently 12% of SCBO “It is so special when the sponsoring church pastor’s churches are involved in church planting… wife comes occasionally and takes my wife to lunch. 4% SBC nationally) Three or four times a year our sponsoring church provides childcare and money for a date night.” For more information contact Steve Hopkins. ~ Church Planter SteveHopkins@scbo.org or 614-827-1820

On Saturday June 13, 2015, State Convention of Baptists in Ohio & Beautiful Feet (see page 40), in conjunction with the North American Mission Board and the Metro Columbus Baptist Association, will host Crossover Columbus. This one day community outreach initiative is a great opportunity for believers to do good deeds, to demonstrate God’s love, and to do practical acts of service throughout the City of Columbus and in its surrounding neighborhoods. The goal is to mobilize a substantial number of volunteers to impact Central Ohio with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
26
The Crossover Columbus Leadership Team is currently in the process of formulating our strategy and securing the many projects that will take place during the day. Would you consider coming to Central Ohio on June 13, 2015 and participating in Crossover Columbus? Would you pray for the area to be significantly impacted with the gospel and for many souls to be won to Christ? Would you pray for pastors to be encouraged and churches to be strengthened?

The vision of the God’s Plan for Sharing (GPS) initiative is to fulfill the Great Commission in North America by Every Believer Sharing. Ever Person Hearing by 2020. God is working in the hearts of those who know Him and those who have yet to know Him.
GPS IS A TWO-PART PROCESS. 1. First, churches intentionally align their evangelism ministry according to the biblical components of: • Praying- Every church praying for every lost person • Equipping- Equipping every believer to share as a trained witness • Sowing- Every lost person receiving a witness • Harvesting- Every church harvesting and celebrating every salvation response 2. Second, churches participate in bi-annual evangelism campaigns (even-numbered years) that will result in Every Believer Sharing and Every Person Hearing by 2020.

The campaign for 2015 is called Serving Across North America and involves planning and implementing coordinated, serving, evangelistic events during the month of March and beyond. The theme for 2015 is Purpose. Find It Here. Churches are encouraged to direct people to findithere.com for spiritual help. The GPS manual (available online) will guide you in forming a simple, strategic plan for implementing a serving, evangelistic event in your community. The needs of each community are unique, and you know best the needs of your community. Adapt the information provided to suit your unique community. Ideas and resources are available on the GPS website at GPS2020.net. These resources are offered free of charge through the partnership between the North American Mission Board and your state convention and the funds provided through the Cooperative Program. Also, know that your Acts 1:8 partners (your association, your state convention, and the North American Mission Board) are ready to assist you in training and consultation as you have need.
