Ministering During a Crisis-Ontario Conference

Happening LIVE in just a few days:

‘Ministering During a Crisis’, a panel that will give the audience an opportunity to hear first-hand accounts from our ministers in Ontario on their experience doing ministry during a pandemic.

*Note:  Pastors (and other leaders) will be able to join in on the conversation via a unique Zoom Webinar link. Pastors from other conferences are also welcome to join the panel and discussion. They may simply send an email using their church email address to cagboka@adventistontario.org for their unique Zoom Webinar link.

Dates:
Panel 1:  January 19, 2021 – from 7:00pm – 8:30 pm
Panel 2:  January 26, 2021 – from 7:00pm – 8:30 pm

These sessions will touch on the reality of ministering during COVID-19 from different perspectives, as well as lessons learned, best practices and future plans.

Both panels will be live-streamed onto our Facebook and YouTube platforms. We look forward to seeing all of you on the live chat (YouTube) or comments (Facebook) feeds. Please invite your colleagues, friends and family. These conversations promise to be eye-opening and impactful. See you there!

Attendees and other participants
There are limited spots for registered attendees, so we are primarily asking pastors, directors and church communicators to register (and church communicators specifically for day 2).

However, we will be live-streaming these discussions onto Ontario Conference Facebook and YouTube channels –facebook.com/adventistontario and youtube.com/adventistontario. We encourage all church members to view the panels on those platforms and participate on the live chat or comments feeds.

Note that we will also leave a few spots open on a first-come, first-serve basis for members who need a phone-in option. Please email the names of those individuals here (cagboka@adventistontario.org).

Again, attached to this message are:

• the event flyers,
• the event promo video,
• Adventist Branded Zoom Virtual Backgrounds (as an option for panellists),
• and the technical requirements for using Zoom Webinar.

Any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out at this email.

We look forward to your presence and support of the event on both dates (Jan. 19 & 26, 7-8:30 pm) for ‘Ministering During A Crisis’. We ask that you spread the word so more of our church members can hear from you, our essential workers.

Thank you for all you did to keep our churches afloat in 2020 and continue to do.
