Workshop Title Presenter
 
Saturday 9:45 AM - 10:45 AM 
From Here to There: Training, Preparation, Going Don Parrott,
President & CEO, Finishers Project
So, if we really want to move from what we're presently doing into a missions ministry...how do we go about it? What are the steps? What about our church, our family, our friends, the finances, training, an agency...and...?? We'll answer all these, and more!
My Significance as a Female Finisher Ele Parrott,
Author & Finishers Spokesperson
I know God has gifted me and may have a new role for my future years. How can I realize that potential, invest myself in significant ways, and "be" what God desires for me? This workshop will open scripture and provide guidance through another gifted "finisher".
Support Raising: What, Why, and How! Bill Butler, Director,
Great Commission Missionary Alliance
Most missions-related ministry roles require raising financial support. What is that experience like? Why is it necessary? How do we go about it?
The Incredible Range of Ministry Opportunities Worldwide Tom Adelsman,
Agency Relations Director, Finishers Project
Is there really a place for me in a missions ministry? I haven't worked in a church or gone to seminary. What could I do? You will be amazed at the abundance of opportunities, and you will leave this workshop knowing where you could be involved.

Using Your Secular Training for Global Impact Nelson Malwitz,
Founder & CIO, Finishers Project
You can use your skills, resources, logistics, business trips, workplace studies and more to further the work of the Kingdom in creative ways. This workshop will expand your world view, showing examples of how you can impact this needy world.
 
Saturday 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM 
Business as Mission (BAM) Bob Blincoe,
US Director, Frontiers
One of the important trends in worldwide missions today is establishing businesses in other parts of the world...legitimate businesses that are needed, make a profit, and also provide an opportunity for believers to be present there to share the love of Jesus.
Dealing with Financial Issues while Moving into Missions Nelson Malwitz,
Founder & CIO, Finishers Project
This is a major issue facing us all. The workshop will explore a variety of approaches on how to finance our missions involvement, giving examples used by others. Opportunity will be given for questions and suggestions from those attending.
Who, Why, How: Getting Started in Short-Term Missions Bill Butler, Director,
Great Commission Missionary Alliance
Have you been considering a mission trip but worry you're not the 'right' person for the job? Maybe you've longed to serve cross-culturally but knew career missions wasn't for you. This workshop will help you gain perspective on the basics of short-term missions - who is best suited for it, why you should do it, and how to get started.
How to Mobilize Other Boomers in your Congregation Don Parrott,
President & CEO, Finishers Project
We often hear that Boomers just aren't as committed as they should be. They seem to be disengaged. Not necessarily so...particularly if we understand the Boomer mind-set and speak their language. Your church has mid-life adults desiring to make a difference, and we can help!
Identifying Your Personal Core Values Julie Kay Field,
Client Services Director, Finishers Project
Core values in business and ministry keep us focused and successful in the mission. This workshop will help you establish your personal and family core values to assist you in realizing your desire to make a difference with your life.
The Valuable Role of Mentoring in Missions Ele Parrott,
Author & Spokesperson, Finishers Project
Spiritual mentoring is an effective tool in the preparation of missionary candidates as well as forming and developing spiritual character while involved in missions. This workshop will equip you with a proven approach to mentoring, illustrated in Ele's book, Transforming Together.
 
Saturday 2:30 PM - 3:30 PM 
Business as Mission (BAM) Repeat Bob Blincoe,
US Director, Frontiers
One of the important trends in worldwide missions today is establishing businesses in other parts of the world...legitimate businesses that are needed, that make a profit, and also provide opportunity for believers to be present there to share the love of Jesus.
Single Adults in Missions: The Upside Julie Kay Field,
Client Services Director, Finishers Project
What are the advantages, challenges and ways to thrive as an unmarried missionary? What are the practical issues for singles in preparation for ministry? We invite single, single again and single parents to participate, as well as any who would like to support singles in missions.
We Did It! So Can You! Paul Erdmann, COO & Colleen Erdmann,
Bookkeeper, Finishers Project
What is it really like to leave your job or business and venture out into a faith-supported new area of ministry? In this workshop you'll hear first-hand from a couple who has taken this journey...and are still alive to talk about it!!
What is My Role in Fulfilling the Great Commission Michael O Halloran,
Director of Development & Operations, Sixteen:Fifteen
Most of us will not leave home permanently to minister overseas. But no matter what you do or how you are gifted, you have an important role to play in fulfilling the Great Commission. This workshop will help you find your mission in the Great Commission.
Discovering your Strengths & Passions for a Future Ministry Fit Tom Adelsman,
Agency Relations Director, Finishers Project
How am I really wired? What is it that motivates me to get involved? What makes something significant for me? This workshop will help you identify your passions in order to help you connect with ways to make a difference in the coming years.
Worldwide Opportunities for Educators Nelson Malwitz,
Founder & CIO, Finishers Project
Are you a teacher? Over half of the positions in the world for teachers to serve missionary families are vacant. The challenge for families - either they return or they sacrifice their children's education. Perhaps God has been preparing you to stand in the gap!
