School for Leadership Training

Pentecost Remixed
The Work of the Holy Spirit
January 17-19, 2011

Speaker: Cheryl Bridges Johns

What do the fresh new forms of the work of the Spirit look like in our time? How can a glance back at the 20th century and its expressions of Spirit-filled life inform our current ministries and personal faith? What do we say to others about the Spirit?

During SLT 2011 these and many other questions will become the basis for keynote addresses, a great lineup of workshops, special training sessions, and interest groups. Worship gatherings will celebrate our life together as believers.

New Schedule
The first keynote speaker address will be during the Monday evening worship, followed by a Welcome Reception for registrants and seminary alumni. Keynotes, workshops and interest groups will fill Tuesday and Wednesday. On Wednesday evening new seminary dean Michael A. King will preach at the closing celebration worship, which will end the School.

Come join participants from the broader church as well as seminary faculty, students, and alumni to explore the theme and be refreshed by time apart.

Cheryl Bridges Johns, professor of Christian Formation and Discipleship at the Church of God Theological Seminary, will be the plenary speaker. Johns is part of the Mennonite-Church of God interfaith dialogue and will explore shared understandings of the Holy Spirit. Visit www.emu.edu/seminary/slt/speakers for more information.
