You are invited to The Believe Out Loud Power Summit in Orlando, Florida, October 9-11, 2010. The Believe Out Loud Power Summit is an advanced training for leaders in the Welcoming Church Movement.
There is no cost to attend The Believe Out Loud Power Summit, but you will be responsible for travel, hotel and food expenses. The Institute of Welcoming Resources has negotiated excellent rates at the hotel and you may use these rates three days before and three days after the summit if you would like to vacation in Orlando.
At The Believe Out Loud Power Summit, you will build concrete skills in key areas of organizing and movement building. These skills include building effective Presbyterian teams and campaigns; intersectional work with race, faith, aging and economic justice; leadership; media and messaging; fundraising; and much more. Scholarships are available. As we begin a national ratification campaign for the Ordination amendment, this leadership event will be an excellent training for that work in your church and presbytery. We want to support Presbyterians committed to LGBT justice and equality in our Church and world to be able to join us at this extraordinary leadership training event. Please contact Michael Adee at (505) 820-7082 or michael@mlp.org to apply for a scholarship.
