Last Thursday, NewSpring hosted its annual Unleash conference for church leaders.  Just about 3,000 church leaders from all over the country, and even some from Canada, made the trek to the metropolis of Anderson, SC for a day long conference designed to “unleash” church staff and volunteers to be who God called them to be in their churches.  The schedule involves a morning and afternoon main session for everybody led by Perry and two breakout sessions with groups meeting all over the campus, each designed to focus on specific areas such as senior pastors only, equipping volunteers, youth ministry, and MANY more.

Perry and Steven leading the senior pastors only breakout.

Lucretia, Perry’s wife, leading a breakout for pastors’ wives.

Lee’s breakout for worship leaders.

NewSpring volunteers absolutely make this thing happen, from greeting to preparing lunch to EVERYTHING else.  If you’re a NewSpring volunteer reading this – thank you.

Sherry Moorhead, Shane Duffey, Lee McDerment, and Brad Cooper all led much smaller lunch discussion sessions.

Clayton’s breakout on protecting your pastor…

B.CooP*’s breakout on youth ministry.  I’d say it was pretty full…

…Cause it’s all for You, it’s all for You, God….
