Mark Your Calendars and Plan to Attend the Fall Road Show in Your Conference

The Southern Ohio Synod staff is once again planning to visit each of our conferences to talk with you about how to Advance God's Mission through growth in mission and support. Bishop Holloway will discuss the mission of the Southern Ohio Synod and ELCA as well as the present challenges of funding the mission. Workshops will be presented on growing through outreach, growth in financial giving, and planning for growth in the parish.

This invitation to our fall Roadshows is for all Southern Ohio Synod congregational members, lay leaders, and rostered leaders.  These events are a great way to share challenges and triumphs with others in your area, as well as talk with the synod staff.

Please plan to attend the Roadshow in your conference.  Dates, times and locations are provided below.

10/09/2010 10 am - Noon Central Ohio Conference North Community, Columbus
10/09/2010 2 pm - 4 pm Scioto Conference First English, Lancaster

Remember, it is important that you attend the event in your conference and not one in another conference, as the handouts and presentations will be specific to your conference.  We're looking forward to seeing you all at the Roadshows!

If you plan to attend the meeting in your area, please contact Kim Uemura at 614.464.3532 or kuemura@southernohiosynod.org by September 17.  Walk-ins are welcomed, but pre-registration allows us to better plan for space and materials. So, if you plan to attend, please take a few moments to pre-register.
