WORKSHOPS
Forums, Workshops & Retreats
Workshops, Retreats and Forums are a great way for us to share our collective wisdom, experience and gifts with one another in the Arkansas-Oklahoma Synod and to build up one another for ministry and mission. Listed below are a variety of topics that Bishop Mike, Pastor Becca and others in the synod can lead for your council, a group or gathering in your congregation, or for your whole congregation.
​
If you would like to schedule a workshop, retreat or forum for your congregation, please call, text or email Bishop Becca or call the synod office. If you have a workshop, retreat or forum you would like to lead for congregations in the synod, send us a title and brief description so we can share that with the synod. If you have an idea for a topic, let us know… we’ll see what we can do to address it.
​
All workshops, retreats and forum are FREE for synod congregations and ministries (your mission support dollars at work!).
​
Bishop Becca also enjoys being invited to lead worship, preach or lead a bible study in your congregation or ministry. Email, text or give us a call and we’ll set something up!
