Partnering for Prayer and Power is the theme for this
year’s conference. In keeping with the theme, SMI
Affiliates will have opportunities both to share
information on prayer activities in which their programs
engage and to pray with other participants.
The keynote presentation will focus on how to build
strong relationships with all program constituencies and
explore How to Tell the Message of Released Time in a
World that Doesn’t Think It’s Possible.
The agenda is rich with opportunities to explore issues
of known interest to teachers and board members/
directors. In addition, there is an early bird focus
group for those interested in starting new programs.
Sessions will address: assessing student worldview
growth, helps for meeting classroom challenges, teaching
students to pray, and building prayer powered
foundations for our programs.
This year’s conference is being hosted by the Christian
Learning Center of the Upstate.
Those coming Thursday are invited to sign up for a
complimentary dinner and early fellowship time.
Prayerfully consider joining us in sharing the vision
and best practices of Released Time programs in order to
strengthen partnerships for prayer and power.
