We often have ideas for things we’d like to see happen in the church—patterns of behavior we wish everyone would adopt—but just telling people to do it won’t make it happen. There are ways we can influence people to do the right thing. Our Conference Consultant Betsy Waters, will lead us in a workshop on influencing. We’ll start with a free breakfast at 8:30. Everyone is welcome, but you’ll be especially glad you came if you’re on one of our ministry teams or committees, or if you serve in any kind of action or advocacy work in the community.
