Second USA FaithSearch Training Class

(6/13/2005) -- The "Extending the Vision" strategy continues with the latest class of US trainees to receive instruction in presenting FaithSearch Discovery.

Six men and women participated in all-day classes through the FaithSearch Center in Chaska, MN. Dr. Don Bierle conducted the training, providing insight in the use of the same FaithSearch presentation he uses in his ministry. Rev. Denny McKeever conducted a session on using FaithSearch Discovery in other contexts, such as the basis for sermon topics, Bible studies, devotions and educational settings.

Each trainee received copies of FaithSearch resources, including the same PowerPoint® presentation used by FaithSearch evangelists. This brings the number of trainees and associates to thirty-three. As they begin to use FaithSearch in their ministries, they become part of extending the impact of the FaithSearch message to new audiences not currently reached by our staff evangelists. This process of multiplication is at the heart of the "Extending the Vision" strategy.

Additional opportunities are available for those who desire to receive training. See the calendar for dates and locations.

The latest class of six men and women gathered in Chask, MN, in June of 2005. They are the second US class of trainees, joining approximately twenty-seven others who in the USA and India. They were trained by Dr. Bierle and Denny McKeever to use FaithSearch in their ministries.
