Building on last year's Made for Mission Week & Conference, we continue to explore how God might use us in our places of work to build his Kingdom. We will begin by looking at the life of Joseph in the Old Testament and seeing how God used this man's work to be a blessing to countless others. Our conference will then focus on sharing our faith effectively in our work. We will then conclude with a guest speaker as we look into the role of the marketplace in the kingdom of God.

• Sunday, February 20: Rodrigo Dinsmore (Missions Pastor)
• Sunday, February 27: Patrick Lai (Author & Speaker)

Most of us spend most of our waking hours at work. So how are we to steward those hours and the working relationships God has given us? And how do we faithfully minister to our colleagues while still observing corporate policies?

Join us for this year's Made for Mission Conference: Witnessing While at Work as we look into these questions. You will be inspired and challenged to make Jesus known in and through your work in ways you may not have considered before.

This highly interactive, workshop-oriented conference will be led by Patrick Lai, author/speaker and a respected name in the Business for Transformation world.
