PRESENTS:


Growing Your Church Through The Next Generation

Our Third Annual Conference on Church Growth

All around us churches are dying. 
Aging congregations are closing their doors because they either don't understand
the importance of youth ministry, or don't know how to engage in it effectively. 
Come join church leaders from across south-central Ontario in a day of fellowship
and learning how we can draw youth into our churches and minister to them
in a real way.

Our Speaker:

Jonathan McKee,
 
president and founder of The Source for Youth Ministry,
is the author of six youth ministry books, including

Do They Run When They See You Coming?
and Getting Students to Show Up.
A storyteller at heart, he speaks and trains at camps, conferences, and events
across North America, and provides free resources for youth workers around
the world on his website, TheSource4YM.com.

Testimonials:

"Jonathan is an incredible communicator. He has what it takes to get tough with this generation.
He is funny, committed, challenging, and he speaks with an edge."

- Jim Burns, Ph.D., President, Youth Builders

"We had Jonathan do his REACHING UNCHURCHED KIDS seminar at our National
Youth Workers Convention and he did a great job. Not only is Jonathan's presentation
dynamic, his information was extremely helpful to those in attendance. In fact, that's
why we're publishing his book."

- Tic Long, President, Youth Specialties Events

"Teaching staff has got to be one of the toughest jobs in ministry. However, along comes
Jonathan with more than a good outline, more than some great success stories, more than
a sense of humor that makes you forget your actually learning something, he comes with
passion and a heart intent on helping people. It is my privilege to recommend him."

- John Selph, Regional Training Director, Youth for Christ, Southwest States

"Jonathan's communication style is a combination of a story teller's humor and realities of life-
coupled with an ability to clearly communicate God's word. I would recommend him
for both outreach and growth events."

- Gary Fox, Executive Director, Youth for Christ, Sacramento CA
