SUMMARY:Discipleship and Mission Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary invites you to join for a Discipleship and Mission Workshop! \nWe all feel the effects of the discipleship crisis we’re in. What if you could lead your church or ministry to have a culture that produced followers of Jesus that were growing in health in all areas–character development\, relational health\, building authentic community\, learning to hear God and do what He says – not only becoming healthy themselves and growing a vibrant relationship with God but learning to multiply themselves into others (i.e.\, becoming disciple-makers). The way of Jesus is so compelling. The kind of disciples He made were disciples who made disciples who made disciples. The culture they created kept reproducing more disciples who followed Jesus with full abandon and built shared-life kinds of communities who went on mission together. \nImagine what would happen if New England was filled with missionary disciples that kept reproducing themselves? Join us November 9th for a Discipleship and Mission Workshop where we will take a deep dive into what it looks like to build a discipling culture in your context. \nRegister here today!

SUMMARY:Boston Flourish 2023
DESCRIPTION:WHAT:  Gather with the dreamers and doers of our city to activate and partner towards a Boston where everyone flourishes. \nAt this gathering\, we will celebrate the many ways that God has been and is presently at work in the city and further this work by connecting together to strategically address issues facing Boston residents. \nThis year\, our key impact areas are human trafficking\, youth mental health\, and migrant care. Key organizations addressing these areas will present the current state of these realities\, the progress that is being made\, and how individuals can come alongside their efforts to see tangible change.  While it is only a one-day gathering\, it will generate working teams\, prototypes\, and collaborative potential for transforming our city\, a holistic movement that can be built on for years to come. \nWHY: Jeremiah 29:7 speaks of the need to seek the welfare and holistic flourishing of the city. Our city thrives when faith\, business\, and civic partners collaboratively address local issues rather than work on their own. Our goal is to see Boston Flourish – and we know that this is only possible if we work together. \nWHO: Business\, non-profit\, church\, and city leaders are all invited to take part in this gathering. This gathering is founded on Christian / holistic gospel values\, and we invite anyone who wants to join us in seeking the flourishing of the city. \nPlease join us and help to spread the word! \nFor more information\, visit www.bostonflourish.com. \nClick here to register for the conference \nClick here for sponsor letter & form

SUMMARY:Dean's Forum: Small Town\, Big Gospel: Ministry in Small Places
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Tuesday\, November 28 for the final Dean’s Forum of 2023! \nFor decades now\, evangelicals have implicitly (and sometimes explicitly) privileged and prioritized ministry in big cities and suburbs. After all\, that’s where the action is\, that’s where to go in order to make your life count\, to influence influencers\, to shape culture. The Apostle Paul focused on cities. A small church in a no-name town doesn’t have the same cachet or importance. But for those of us who long to see God’s glory spread everywhere\, throughout the world\, it’s worth asking: is the case for privileging large-place ministry compelling? Is it possible to live a fruitful and significant life devoted to small-place ministry? If so\, how ought we to go about it? Small-town pastor and Gordon-Conwell adjunct faculty\, Dr. Stephen Witmer will address these questions in the forum. \nDr. Jason McConnell\, Gordon-Conwell adjunct faculty and pastor of Franklin United Church and East Franklin Union Church\, will give a response. \nThe Dean’s Forum discussion is free and is open to the public. RSVP is required by November 20 for those who are planning to attend in person. Lunch will be provided to those who will be attending in person. \nRegister here today!

SUMMARY:Welcoming Joy Conference
DESCRIPTION:Join women from Boston and New England at our 2nd collaborative conference! Welcoming Joy: Acknowledging Suffering\, Holding Fast to Hope\, is our Christian response to the reality of pain and suffering in our lives\, our city\, and in the world. As women\, we experience emotional\, psychological\, and physical pain such as the loss of a relationship\, the death of a loved one\, chronic pain\, and even depression. We also may watch helplessly as others suffer extreme loss in their life. Yet\, our faith asks that we remain hopeful in the midst of affliction. “Count it all joy\, my {sisters} when you meet trials of many kinds because you know that the testing of your faith produces patience”. (James 1:2). But how do we count it joy when our heart is in despair? That is just one of the many questions we will consider at this conference. \nJesus’ life provides a model for joy and hope. In Hebrews 12:2b it says For the joy set before him\, he endured the cross\, scorning its shame\, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.  \nRegister here today\, and join this conversation on Joy: how to welcome\, embrace\, and persevere in it!

SUMMARY:Nourish Our Neighbors Initiative
DESCRIPTION:Nourish Our Neighbors is an initiative to help our neighbors struggling with food insecurity access culturally-relevant\, healthy\, and fresh foods\, during the holidays and beyond! \nWorking toward food justice means seeing food access as more than just taking in calories or being close to a grocery store. With food justice\, people have access to fresh\, healthy\, affordable\, culturally-relevant foods that they actually want to eat. Ensuring this access during periods of food insecurity is an important part of building an equitable\, just\, and resilient food system in the City of Boston. We collaborate with partners across the City to meet the diverse food needs of our residents – and you can help! \n\nTo learn more\, visit our website or fill out this form if you would like someone to help connect you!
