Back to all

Register Today for Best Practices for Ministry: Heartland!

Cornerstone is once again hosting Best Practices for Ministry: Heartland, on October 9-11 at our Carmel site! The goal of Best Practices for Ministry: Heartland is to help staff and volunteers of our Lutheran congregations most effectively use their God-given gifts by providing instruction and inspiration through LCMS leaders and pastors from around the country. And best of all, IT’S FREE!

But is it for you? YES!

You may be thinking this conference is for church workers, and it is. But it’s also for church leaders and volunteers. If you’re looking for new and exciting ways to share the love of Jesus in your ministry at Cornerstone or other places, if you want to be encouraged, if you need rest and rejuvenation, then BPMH is for you!

We invite you to sign up for this free conference. Even if you can’t make it for the entire conference, that’s OK! We would love to have you whenever it fits your schedule, like for a keynote speaker, a breakout session or two, or even for our awesome worship times.

Register today! Visit CornerstoneLutheran.church/BPMH.
