Come and get equipped on how to share the good news of Jesus in your daily life, your local community and globally. Bishop George Sumner will speak about the Anglican Tradition of Evangelism.

Keynote Speaker: Rebecca Manley Pippert, renown author and expert in sharing faith in daily life and how to run effective small groups for seekers.  Her book "Out of the Saltshaker and Into the World" has sold more than half a million copies worldwide.

Breakout Session Topics:

Engaging the Digital Mission Field - Jeremy Tackett, Director of Digital Evangelism for the Episcopal Church, and Chris Sikkemma, Media Director and Host for the Episcopal Church's Way of Love Campaign, will teach us how to make the most of websites and social media for our churches.

Prayer and Evangelism - Canon Carrie Headington, Nancy Beth Roberts, and Pat Allen (leaders of the Harvest Prayer Network) will teach how prayer intersects with evangelism and faith sharing.  They will cover everything from parish renewal to personally praying for people who do not know Jesus.

Biblical Storying - Deacon Paul Thomas, Wycliffe Bible Translator and missionary, will teach how to share about Jesus through story.  This is a great tool for anyone going on a short term mission trip or engaging refugees and new immigrants from other countries here in Dallas.
