Leadership Summit

March 14-16, 2024

We are so excited for the first time this year to not only offer a Youth Ministry and Kids Ministry track but also a Pastor’s track. We have pulled together some of the best voices in these different fields of ministry for our Leadership Summit in spring 2024! As always our heart is to bring you the best Leadership Summit experience we can for an incredibly affordable cost. $60 is the total cost for the entire summit which includes:

All Summit Sessions

Meals

Lodging (if you choose to stay at LMRC)

Resources

And More!

Don’t delay, register today! Spots are limited at LMRC and once they fill up you will need to reserve lodging at local area hotels. As always we ask that if you live within 45 minutes of Lake Maurer Retreat Center, you would please drive in every day to leave space for those traveling across the state. We believe this will be the most powerful Leadership Summit we have ever had. We encourage you to invite your team members to this event as well. Don’t miss out!
